| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Pregnant guinea pigs at early, mid or late gestational period in each were exposed to 4 kHz pure tone at 120 dB sound pressure level for 4 hours. We classified animals into four groups; that is, control group, early, mid and late gestational exposure group (EG, MG and LG). The threshold and the latency of ABR in newborn guinea pig were recorded for 6 stimuli on postnatal days (PNDs) 1, 7, 14 and 28.
The ABR thresholds of MG and LG groups were significantly higher than those of control group and EG group. The ABR thresholds of EG group was significantly higher than that of control group.Conclusions: This is the first study to show that noise exposure during early and mid gestational period as well as at late gestational period elevated neonatal guinea pig ABR threshold significantly.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
妊娠初期、中期、後期といういぞれの妊娠時期においても母体の音響暴露が新生児の難聴を引き起こす可能性が判明した。これは世界初のデータであり、この成果は、母子保健行政推進においても大変貴重な知見である。特に、妊娠初期でさえも音響暴露で生まれた新生児に難聴を引き起こすという結果は世界ではじめてであり、大変貴重なデータである。新生児の難聴対策のための貴重な知見であり、少子化の歯止めがかからない日本の母子保健衛生の施策に結びつくものと思われる。
