[Specific features of professional hypoacusis in airline pilots].
The article deals with present-day problems of occupational hypoacusis in airline pilots. Such hypoacusis demonstrates a tendency to higher incidence. Current criteria of occupational hypoacusis for industrial workers do not satisfy the requirements of medical flight expertise as they do not consider specificities of flight conditions. This leads to erroneous expert conclusions of ENT occupational medical specialists. The problem should be solved by design of scientifically grounded criteria of assessing the state of the acoustic analyzer and flight conditions.
