Music-Induced Hearing Loss

Music-induced hearing loss is hearing loss resulting from exposure to high levels of music over prolonged periods of time.

Making music can result in hearing loss.

Performers

In one study :

52% of classical musicians and 30% of rock musicians were found to have some degree of permanent hearing loss.
80% of musicians immediately following their performance also had temporary music-induced hearing loss.

Music venues have drastically different acoustics – think of a high school gym dance with a live band, compared to a string quartet in a large rehearsal space designed to reflect only necessary sounds.
It is important to inform your musician patients of the various hearing risks different settings may hold.

instrumental musicians

Brass, woodwind, and percussion players are particularly susceptible to music-induced hearing loss because of high volume levels and high frequencies.
If your patient plays one of these instruments, or sits near one, they may be at an increased risk for MIHL
