Laser platforms included Lumenis Moses 2.0, Quanta Litho 150, Quanta Magneto, and Dornier Thulio. Sound measurements were obtained using a standardized smartphone\u2010based system during three phases: laser\u2010off (baseline), idle (not firing), and active lasing. Acoustic metrics included average sound level (LAeq), peak sound level (Lcpeak), and sound levels exceeded for 10%, 50%, and 90% of the recording time (L10, L50, and L90). Background noise correction was performed using baseline measurements to account for ambient noise and isolate laser\u2010related sound. OR staff completed a validated survey assessing perceived noise burden (0\u201310 scale).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Background\u2010corrected noise during active lasing differed significantly by platform. Litho demonstrated lower mean noise levels compared to Thulio for LAeq (60.6 vs. 68.2\u2009dB,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.023) and L10 (61.5 vs. 70.6\u2009dB,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.023), while Moses had higher LAeq compared to Litho (63.1 vs. 60.6\u2009dB,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.043). Overall, Litho had the lowest noise levels, whereas Thulio had the highest. Survey responses paralleled these findings. Litho was associated with lower perceived overall effort (2.1\u2009\u00b1\u20090.9), while Moses demonstrated higher overall effort (3.6\u2009\u00b1\u20091.2) for communication and concentration (Figure 2). Significant pairwise differences were observed between Moses and Litho (all\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.05).
