One of the five main senses in humans is the ear which is very necessary to capture the communication delivered. The human ear can only receive sound frequency intensity with a range of about 20 Hz to 20kHz. If the ear is exposed to quite loud noise and for a long period of time, it will cause noise-induced hearing loss. Earphone users who use the device more than 8 hours / week compared to earphone users with a time limit of only a few hours, the results of hearing levels are worse. This activity aims to provide knowledge about education in the use of earphones which is carried out by the ENT-HN Polyclinic of Dr. H. Abdul Moeloek Hospital, Lampung Province.
