Graphical user interface for the analysis of noise induced hearing loss

We have developed a Windows-based computer program which will help the user to collect data needed for calculation models of noise induced hearing loss (NIHL). The program has a graphical user interface and it includes several methods to calculate NIHL. We have tried to make our system to cover all the factors concerning NIHL and also to take into account other possible reasons of hearing loss. The system is used not only for estimating noise induced hearing loss, but also as a systematic way to collect data for future evolution of new models and for other research purposes. For this sake the program asks some questions that are not currently included to these models, but which have been shown to have some impact on noise induced hearing loss.
