In addition the using of hearing protective devices has not been evaluated in the prevention of cardiovascular effects of noise exposure. In this study we evaluated the hearing protective devices on systolic-Diastolic Blood Pressure and heart rate. Materials and Methods: During this interventional study that was done in grinding industry, the Blood Pressure and heart rate of 50 workers were measured who did not use hearing protective devices. They were asked to use of hearing protective devices for 4 weeks and their Blood Pressure and heart rate were measured again, and the statistical analysis was performed by spss20. Results: The result of this study showed that the use of hearing protective devices cause a significant reduction in systolic blood pressure (p=0.001), diastolic blood pressure (p= 0.016) and heart rate (p=0.05). Conclusion: The results showed that, by using of hearing protective devices at industrial area in addition to reduce the effects of noise on hearing system, the adverse effects on the cardiovascular system is also reduced.
