Repeated Noise Exposure Does Not Reach Hazardous Levels During Total Joint Arthroplasty.

CONCLUSION: Noise exposure in THA and TKA was higher than arthroscopic cases but did not exceed occupational standards. A daily dose percentage of approximately 2% per case indicates that repeated noise exposure likely does not reach hazardous levels in modern arthroplasty practice.
