Abstract
NIHL is an underestimated problem in the orthopedic surgery. Solutions for decreasing the risk of hearing loss should be considered. The use of oscillating tip saw systems have a reduced noise emission in comparison with the conventional saw system. The use of these newer systems might be a first step in decreasing hearing loss among the orthopedic surgery personnel.
