| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to investigate the sound level and frequency level in the neonatal intensive care unit and inside incubators. The total time for recording sound was almost 10 hours. The sound level was higher than that recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. The range of frequency levels was also relatively wide, from less than 1 kHz to approximately 6 kHz, even though the sound volume was almost the same. Premature infants did not react to low frequency sound. These results indicate that evaluation of frequency levels of sound may be useful for reducing stressful noise for premature infants in the intensive care nursery.
