Furthermore, in the blood pressure measurements the 94,1% present a normal blood pressure and the 5,9% present a high blood pressure; also, there was not a significant interrelation with the noise due to other variables that affect the blood pressure of children and young people exist. The hearing tests in most of the institutions showed a minimum, mild or moderate hearing loss which has a strong interrelation with the noise produced inside of the institutions.
