  • A demonstration of how to perform a crude hearing test aswell as Rinnes and Webers hearing tests using a tuning fork. These tests can help detect conductive or sensorineural deafness.
    Correction to original video: In Webers test if the sound is heard louder in the good ear it would indicate sensorineural hearing loss.

    At the end of the video is states: "In an abnormal Weber's test the sound appears louder in the deaf ear. This is usually sensorineural deafness"
    I believe this is incorrect, hearing it louder in the deaf ear would indicate conductive hearing loss. If is is louder in the good ear it would indicate sensorineural hearing loss.

      At the End I think the same, it's a conductive hearing loss. On my semiology book ( if there's conductive hearing loss the sound has to appear louder in the deaf ear.)

    I appreciate the video, but my understanding is that if the sound is perceived as louder in the deaf ear during the Weber Test, it indicates a conductive hearing loss rather than a sensorineural one

    It was good,
    In rinne test you needed to ask the patient when he stops hearing through mastoid bone then you could continue to the external auditory canal. Otherwise it was good thanks for uploading

      +All Access Medicine In the Weber Test Sound is louder in the ear with conductive deafness.
      And louder in the normal ear if the ear has sensorineural deafness.
      Weber Test: Test in which the stem of a vibrating tuning fork is placed on the midline of the head to ascertain in which ear the soundis heard by bone conduction. The sound will be perceived in the affected ear when a unilateral conductive hearing lossis present or in the unaffected ear when there is a unilateral sensorineural hearing loss. The result of this test iscombined with the result of the Rinne test to interpretation of the type of hearing loss.

    At the end of this video, It's a CONDUCTIVE DEAFNESS, & if the sound is quieter than the normal ear so it will be a sensorineural deafness.
    Thx for this tutorial btw, it was very helpful 👍🏻

    To differentiate between Conductive and Sensorineural hearing loss we do Rinne and Weber test.
    With Rinne test we find out which ear is diseased. In Rinne test if ear conduction is less than bony conduction in an ear then that ear is diseased. Now with Rinne we have found out which ear is diseased. The issue could be Conductive or Sensorineural.
    Then we do Weber to find out if the patient has Conductive or Sensorineural hearing loss. I will tell you the reason why we observe what we observe, I found it to be fairly useful, the reason was given on wikipedia and wikipedia states that the reason may be partially true But I found it to be very useful. Okay let us find out if the patient is suffering from Sensorineural or Conductive hearing loss, keep in mind that we have already found out which ear is diseased.
    *Do Weber*
    If you hear less in the ear which is diseased - Sensorineural problem - Fairly easy and intuitive.
    But if you hear more in the ear which is diseased - Conductive. Okay why?
    Because In Weber test sound will travel bony conduction and you will have less noise here PLUS the sound vibrations will not be able to escape if the person is having conductive hearing loss so the patient will hear louder.

    What is seen in the Weber test of a subject suffering from neural hearing loss in the right ear
    only?
    1) will hear the sound better in the right ear
    2) will hear the sound in the center of the head
    3) will hear the sound weaker in the right ear
    4) will hear the sound better when we attach the speaker to the mastoid

    In a sensorineural hearing loss, sound would lateralize to the unaffected ear during the weber test. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    • @marianaboitano4466
      @marianaboitano4466 7 років тому +2

      If sound lateralizes to the right ear, it either means that there is sensorineural loss in the left ear or conduction loss in the right ear. You want to do both tests to rule out possibilities from each test.

  • @mutul1000
    @mutul1000 5 місяців тому

    Incorrect information about ''sensorineural deafness'' at the end of the video. Actually it should be a patient with unilateral
    conductive hearing loss will hear the sound loudest in the affected ear, whereas a patient with unilateral sensorineural hearing
    loss will report the sound to be loudest in the unaffected ear.

    You are supposed to hold the tuning fork rotated at 90° to how you were holding it when checking air conduction.

    • @dr.zinaart5274
      @dr.zinaart5274 8 років тому +3

      This is because the ear with the CHL is only receiving input from the bone conduction and no air conduction, and the sound is perceived as louder in that ear.This finding is because the conduction problem of the middle ear masks the ambient noise of the room, while the well-functioning inner ear picks the sound up via the bones of the skull, causing it to be perceived as a louder sound in the affected ear.
