Random information on the term “Hearing test”:
The Rinne test (/ˈrɪnə/ RIN-ə) is a hearing test, primarily for evaluating loss of hearing in one ear (unilateral hearing loss).[1] It compares perception of sounds transmitted by air conduction to those transmitted by bone conduction through the mastoid. Thus, one can quickly screen for the presence of conductive hearing loss.
A Rinne test should always be accompanied by a Weber test to also detect sensorineural hearing loss and thus confirm the nature of hearing loss.
The Rinne test was named after German otologist Heinrich Adolf Rinne (1819–1868);[2][3] the Weber test was named after Ernst Heinrich Weber (1795–1878).
The Rinne test is performed by placing a 512 Hz vibrating tuning fork against the patient’s mastoid bone and asking the patient to tell you when the sound is no longer heard. Once the patient signals they can’t hear it, the still vibrating tuning fork is then placed 1–2 cm from the auditory canal. The patient is then asked again to indicate when they are no longer able to hear the tuning fork.
