compares the hearing sensitivity of a patient with that of an examiner with normal hearing
|
schwabach test
|
|
vibrating tuning fork is placed alternately against the mastoid process of the patient and the examiner
|
schwabach test
|
|
after how many seconds after the patient stops hearing the tone should the examiner start to worry
|
8-10
|
|
in ____ schwabach the patient may hera the tone longer than examiner
|
prolonged
|
|
in ____ schwabach the patient stops hearing the tone much sooner than examiner
|
diminished
|
|
in diminished schwabach what kind of hearing loss is present
|
sensorineural
|
|
hearing by ___ conduction is impaired in diminished schwabach
|
bone
|
|
compares patients hearing sensitivity by bone conduction to that by air conduction
|
rinne test
|
|
vibrating fork is held to the mastoid process and then next to the opening of the ear
|
rinne test
|
|
in ___ rinne, air conduction is more efficient than bone conduction
|
positive
|
|
patient hears louder tone with the stem of the fork behind the ear than with the tines at the opening of the ear
|
negative rinne
|
|
negative rinne has what kind of hearing loss
|
conductive
|
|
occurs when the inner ear not deliberately being tested responds to the tone
|
false negative rinne
|
|
what test is observed for primarily low-pitched sounds
|
bing test
|
|
occlusion effect is evident in patients with ____ hearing loss but is absent in patients with ____ hearing loss
|
sensorineural, conductive
|
|
tuning fork handle is held to mastoid while the examiner alternately closes and opens the ear canal with finger
|
bing test
|
|
result is a pulsating sound that seems to get louder and softer
|
positive bing
|
|
positive bing has what kind of hearing loss
|
sensorineural
|
|
negative bing has what kind of hearing loss
|
conductive
|
|
test of lateralization
|
weber test
|
|
patients must state where they hear the tone (left, right, both, mid) and where its louder
|
weber test
|
|
vibrating fork is placed on midline of patients skull
|
weber test
|
|
during the weber test if you hear tone in the better ear you have what kind of hearing loss
|
unilateral sensorineural
|
|
during the weber test if you hear tone in the worse ear you have what kind of hearing loss
|
unilateral conductive hearing loss
|
|
if 2 tones are identical in all ways except loudness are introduced simultaneously into both ears, only the louder tone will be perceived
|
stenger principle
