Description
Summary:This paper summarizes the currently available knowledge on the impact of infrasound (IS) and low frequency noise (LFN) on human health and well-being. This narrative review of the literature data was based on the selected, mostly, peer-reviewed research papers, review articles, and meta-analyses that were published in 1971–2022. It has been focused on the results of epidemiological studies concerning the annoyance related to infrasound and low frequency noise, as well as their impact on the cardiovascular system and sleep disorders. Particular attention was also paid to the latest research results and specific sources of IS and LFN, i.e., wind turbines. Med Pr Work Health Saf. 2023;74(5):409–23.
