|
decrease in the strength of a sound
|
attenuation
|
|
|
bone conduction test comparing the hearing sensitivity of a patient with that of an examiner
|
Schwabach test
|
|
|
bony protrusion behind the ear
|
mastoid process
|
|
|
examiner's normal hearing matches the patient
|
normal Schwabach
|
|
|
hearing stops before the examiner sensiorneural loss, impaired bone conduction
|
diminished Schwabach
|
|
|
prolonged Schwabach
|
hearing in low pitch is better than normal in conductive hearing loss
|
|
|
false noraml Schwabach
|
probably respond to sound heard through the better ear
|
|
|
Rinne test
|
hearing sensitivity by bone conduction to air conduction
|
|
|
positive Rinne
|
people with a louder tone when the fork is next to the ear when it is behind the ear
|
|
|
negative Rinne
|
mild conductive loss their bone conduction hearing they will hear a louder tone with the stem of the fork behind the ear
|
|
|
occurs when the inner ear not deliberately being tested to the tone.
|
false negative Rinne
|
|
|
Bing test
|
when person with noraml hearing close off the opening into the ear canal the loudnesss of a tone presented by bone conduction increases
|
|
|
positive Bing
|
the result is a pulsating sound or a sound that gets louder and softer /tone sounds louder with ear opening occluded
|
|
|
negative Bing
|
patients with conductive hearing loss no change in the loudness of the sound is noticed/tone does not sound louder with ear opening occluded
|
|
|
Weber test
|
lateralization patients must state where they hear the tone the fork in the midline of head - left ear, right ear both ears midline
|
|
|
people with normal hearing or equal amounts of the same type of hearing loss in both ears will report
|
a midline sensation
|
|
|
with weber test patients with sensiorneural hearing loss in one ear will hear the tone
|
in their better ear
|
|
|
Stenger principle
|
if tone tones that are identical in all ways except loudness are introduced simultaneously into both ears only the louder tone will be perceived...
|
|
|
with bone conduction sensitivity is poorer in one ear than the other
|
the tone beingin to both ears with equal energy will be perceived as softer or will not be perceived at all in the poorer ear
|
|
|
weird phonemeon
|
tone being louder in ear with conductive loss than in normal ear unilateral conductive loss
|
|
|
nrmal air conduction results in
|
normal hearing
|
|
|
normal bone conduction
|
normal hearing or conductive hearing loss
|
|
|
poorer hearing for air conduction tan for bone conduction
|
conductive or mixed hearing loss
|
|
|
hearing for air conduction the same as hearing for bone conduction
|
normal hearing or sensorineural hearing loss
|
