Implications of Human Performance and Perception under Tonal Noise Conditions on Indoor Noise Criteria
Erica E. Ryherd,Lily M. Wang +1 more
TL;DR: Investigation of differences in task performance and perception under six non-time-varying ventilation-type background noise spectra with differing tonality showed that performance scores did not change significantly across the six noise conditions, but there were differences in subjective perception.

Noise Pollution in Hospitals: Impacts on Staff
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating the Hospital Soundscape
TL;DR: Increased sound absorption that tends to make speech more intelligible and lower background noise levels has been linked to improved sleep in an experimental study, a reduction in cardiovascular arousals, and decreased incidence of re-hospitalization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lighting and Nurses at Medical–Surgical Units Impact of Lighting Conditions on Nurses’ Performance and Satisfaction
TL;DR: Thoughtful design of the lighting environment can improve nurses’ satisfaction and perception about their working environment and help to understand areas of improvement for lighting at medical–surgical hospital units.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring the Relationships Between Patient Room Layout and Patient Satisfaction.
