DESCRIPTION

Difference between Rinne & Webber test results

TRANSCRIPT

RINNE:

RINNE:

conductive hearing = mastoid bone; sensory hearing = external auditory meatus (air)(+) Normal: (sensory hearing = external auditory meatus) > (conductive hearing = mastoid bone)

(-) Abnormal Detect conductive hearing loss: (conductive hearing = mastoid bone) > (sensory hearing = external auditory meatus)

WEBER:

Normal: hear (lateralization) = in both ears

AbnormalDetect conductive hearing loss: lateralization to the affected earDetect sensory hearing loss: lateralization to the normal ear
