Abstrakt: Low Frequency Noise (LFN) is an environmental stressor causing annoyance and, potentially, sleep disturbance. It is a topic of increasing social concern. In the Netherlands, an increasing number of complaints about LFN in the home environment is filed each year. The RIVM was asked to prepare an overview on the health effects of LFN, including literature and an update on the Dutch way of handling complaints about LFN or a hum. To this end, a questionnaire was filled out by officials of municipalities, by other public authorities, and by audiologists. This paper contains an overview of LFN literature, findings of the questionnaire study and recommendations for future research on LFN. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
