摘要:Purpose: to describe the audiological profile and auditory complaints of indoor cycling teachers, as well as to relate the findings with time of noise exposure and presence of tinnitus. Methods: participants were eight teachers of both genders, age ranging from 24 to 36 years, with professional experience in the area for at least one year. Sound pressure level was measured during the class, which lasted from 45 to 50 minutes and an adapted anamnesis questionnaire composed of ten items was applied to each individual to research the auditory symptoms and factors related to noise exposure and the audiological assessment performed. Inferential statistical tests were applied. The level of statistical significance was 0.05. Results: all of them had pure tone audiometry, tympanometry testing and brainstem auditory evoked potential within normal limits. There were alterations in the high frequency audiometry and otoacoustic emissions without a statistical correlation with the time of professional experience. Conclusion: the audiological profile obtained was pure tone audiometry, tympanometry and brainstem auditory evoked potential within normal limits; altered transient otoacoustic and distortion product emissions and high frequency audiometry. The complaints reported were: tinnitus, dizziness, the need to listen at a high volume and being exposed to excessive noise.
