Abstract Background Noise pollution in intensive care units is a relevant problem, associated with psychological and physiological consequences for patients healthcare staff. Sources of noise include medical equipment, alarms, communication tools, staff activities, conversations. Aims To explore the cumulative effects caused by an increasing number type devices setting on simulated clinical complexity. Secondly, to measure device alarms nursing activities' sound levels, evaluating their role as potentially disruptive noises. Study Design Observational simulation study (reported according STROBE checklist). Using electronic meter, levels room seven scenarios were measured single day (09 March 2022), each featuring numbers devices, hypothetically corresponding augmented patients' specific activities performed at distance three meters from meter analysed. Results The empty room's mean baseline level was 37.8 (±0.7) dBA; among scenarios, ranged between 45.3 (±1.0) 53.5 (±1.5) dBA. Alarms 76.4 81.3 dBA, while tasks (closing drawer, opening saline bag overwrap, or sterile packages) speaking all over 80 noisiest activity package (98 dBA). Conclusion An increased expression higher complexity, not significant cause noise. Some conversations produce than alarms. This study's findings suggest further research assess relationships these factors encourage adequate reduction strategies.
