[An audiometric screening of flight personnel].
Aircrews frequently display acoustic traumas owing to the heavy sound stresses to which they are exposed. Audiometric screening should thus be carried out at regular intervals to assess hearing loss and set in motion measures for its prevention. A brief account of the pathological forms most commonly encountered is followed by expression of the hope that the methods generally used to appraise the percentage of disability in the hearing will be revised, since they are particularly unfavourable to aircrews.
