Abstract:
Objective To study the protective effects of salvia miltiorrhiza on acute acoustic trauma (AAT) showed by temporary threshold shifts (TTS) induced by impulse noise.Methods A total of 62 male soldiers from a boot camp were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group,each with 31 persons.The experimental group was treated with salvia miltiorrhiza,and the control group with placebo.Salvia miltiorrhiza was taken orally at the dosage of 780 mg each time,three times a day for 3 consecutive days before the live fire training and 1 day after the live fire training.The pure tone thresholds of right ears of these two groups were measured and compared 72 hours before live fire training and 6 hours after the live fire training.Results The puretone averages at 0.5,1 and 2 kHz of the right ears of the experimental group and the control group before live fire training were 16.32±6.12 dB and 16.21±5.42 dB,respectively,and the averages at 4,6 and 8 kHz were 14.22±5.16 dB and 14.89±5.38 dB,respectively.There were no significant differences between the 2 groups(P＞0.05).The PTAs of the right ears of the experimental group and the control group 6 hours after live fire training were 21.88±5.71 dB and 21.66±6.62 dB,respectively(P＞0.05),while the HPTAs were 25.89 ± 7.97 dB and 39.75 ± 7.84 dB,respectively(P＜0.01).There were significant differences in TTS between the two groups at 4,6 and 8 kHz(P＜ 0.01).Conclusion Salvia miltiorrhiza can reduce TTS at high frequencies induced by AAT.It has a potential preventive effect on AAT.
