Sound intolerance affects a large part of the population and thus contributes to increased ill health in society. However, the extent to which and in what way sound intolerant is affected is unclear. The ​purpose​ was to contribute to a more qualitative understanding of the impact that sound intolerance can have by mapping and analyzing literature on sound intolerance in a perspective of Empowerment. The ​method​ used was a scoping study. In total, n = 24 studies were reviewed and n = 10 were included for an in-depth qualitative analysis. The results​ show that there are studies that describe that sound intolerance has an impact on Empowerment, but that none of the studies examined have such a pronounced focus. Sound intolerance seems in many respects to be a hidden or unconscious phenomenon and there is reason to work for higher knowledge and awareness to strengthen the sound intolerant's Empowerment. / Ljudintolerans drabbar en stor del av befolkning och bidrar således till ökad ohälsa isamhället. I vilken utsträckning och på vilket sätt ljudintoleranta påverkas är dock oklart.Syftet var att bidra till en mer kvalitativ förståelse för den påverkan ljudintolerans kan hagenom att kartlägga- och analysera litteratur om ljudintolerans i ett perspektiv avEmpowerment. Metoden som användes var en kartläggande litteraturöversikt. Totaltgranskades n=24 studier och n=10 inkluderades för en fördjupad kvalitativ analys.Resultatet visar att det finns studier som beskriver att ljudintolerans har en påverkan påljudintolerantas Empowerment men att inga av de granskade studierna har ett sådant uttalatfokus. Ljudintolerans förefaller i många avseende vara ett dolt eller omedvetet fenomenoch det finns anledning att arbeta för högre kunskap och medvetenhet för att stärkaljudintolerantas Empowerment.

Hyperacusis and Disorders of Sound Intolerance: Clinical and Research Perspectives is a professional resource for audiology practitioners involved in the clinical management of patients who suffer from sound tolerance concerns. The text covers emerging assessment and intervention strategies associated with hyperacusis, disorders of pitch perception, and other unusual processing deficits of the auditory system. In order to illustrate the patients perspectives and experiences with disorders of auditory processing, cases are included throughout. This collection of diagnostic strategies and tools, evidence-based clinical research, and case reports provides practitioners with avenues for supporting patient management and coping. It combines new developments in the understanding of auditory mechanisms with the clinical tools developed to manage the effects such disorders exert in daily life. Topics addressed include unusual clinical findings and features that influence a patient s auditory processing such as their perceptual accuracy, recognition abilities, and satisfaction with the perception of sound. Hyperacusis is covered with respect to its effects, its relation to psychological disorders, and its management. Hyperacusis is often linked to trauma or closed head injury and the text also considers the management of patients with traumatic brain injury as an opportunity to illustrate the effectiveness of interprofessional care in such cases. Interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy, self-efficacy training, and hearing aid use are reported in a way that enhances clinicians' ability to weave such strategies into their own work, or into their referral system. Hyperacusis and Disorders of Sound Intolerance illuminates increasingly observed auditory-related disorders that challenge students, clinicians, physicians, and patients. The text elucidates and reinforces audiologists contributions to polytrauma and interprofessional care teams and provides clear definitions, delineation of mechanisms, and intervention options for auditory disorders. / https://dc.etsu.edu/etsu_books/1210/thumbnail.jpg

A variety of unusual and challenging auditory events may affect musicians and recording engineers, particularly when associated with perceptions of excessive loudness, pitch anomalies, aversions to specific sounds, and the sensation of pain in the ears. This presentation will review mechanisms associated with disordered sound tolerance (DST), including exposure characteristics, and the many physiologic changes that result in unusual auditory symptoms such as tinnitus, hyperacusis, diplacusis, and auditory nociception, or the sensation of pain in the ears triggered by sound. Consensus regarding terminology of symptoms of DST is lacking among hearing health care professionals; labeling schemes related to elements of DST will be reviewed, as will the relation between audiometric status and DST.
