How to Perform the Weber & Rinne Hearing Tests | Clinical Examination Skills
Vložit
- čas přidán 1. 06. 2024
- In this video, I demonstrate how to perform the Weber & Rinne Hearing Tests. These two screening hearing examinations are commonly used in the primary care setting as an initial evaluation of hearing loss. The Weber and Rinne Tests are very quick and easy to perform during your patient assessments and are essential clinical examination skills to master, especially as a provider in the primary care setting. If there is any concern for hearing loss after performing the Weber & Rinne Hearing Tests, then further evaluation by an ENT specialist is likely needed.
I am a dual certified family and pediatric nurse practitioner. I worked many years as a registered nurse (RN) in the emergency room, then continued working in the emergency room after becoming a nurse practitioner (NP). I also did travel nursing as an ER nurse. Check out my travel nursing videos to learn more about my life as a travel nurse. :)

Thank you for the helpful video. I have a question because my mum is a bit worried. Her doctor performed the Weber test and she could not hear anything, but for the Rinne test everything was ok. Does that mean that the Weber test was not conducted properly?

Superb mam
Thank very much.
You’re very welcome! 😊
Thnks much..need to know how measure liver please
When one fails this sort of hearing screening, it is much more efficient to refer directly to an audiologist because that is where the patient is going to end up at some point in the process. For those cases that need ENT treatment, the audiologist will make that referral based on formal testing results.
Thank you so much maam! This is very helpful for my Anaphy Lab at home. :))
So glad it help you! Best wishes with your studies! 😊
Thank you mam.
Of course!
How do you know if it's the "good ear"???
Great educational video, this is the first time i’ve seen a tuning fork and how to use it!
Thanks! Yea they’re pretty cool little instruments

Please a little meditation to determine your destiny .. It is impossible for this statement to be the speech of any human being, which describes the creation of mankind and the heavens and the earth and what is in it this accurate description and with this power.
🌸🌸🌸
12. And indeed We created man (Adam) out of an extract of clay (water and earth).
آية: 13
ثُمَّ جَعَلۡنَٰهُ نُطۡفَةٗ فِي قَرَارٖ مَّكِينٖ
13. Thereafter We made him (the offspring of Adam) as a Nutfah (mixed drops of the male and female sexual discharge and lodged it) in a safe lodging (womb of the woman).
آية: 14
ثُمَّ خَلَقۡنَا ٱلنُّطۡفَةَ عَلَقَةٗ فَخَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡعَلَقَةَ مُضۡغَةٗ فَخَلَقۡنَا ٱلۡمُضۡغَةَ عِظَٰمٗا فَكَسَوۡنَا ٱلۡعِظَٰمَ لَحۡمٗا ثُمَّ أَنشَأۡنَٰهُ خَلۡقًا ءَاخَرَۚ فَتَبَارَكَ ٱللَّهُ أَحۡسَنُ ٱلۡخَٰلِقِينَ
14. Then We made the Nutfah into a clot (a piece of thick coagulated blood), then We made the clot into a little lump of flesh, then We made out of that little lump of flesh bones, then We clothed the bones with flesh, and then We brought it forth as another creation. So Blessed is Allâh, the Best of creators.[1]
(V.23:14) See the footnote of (V.22:5).
آية: 15
ثُمَّ إِنَّكُم بَعۡدَ ذَٰلِكَ لَمَيِّتُونَ
15. After that, surely, you will die.
آية: 16
ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمۡ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ تُبۡعَثُونَ
16. Then (again), surely, you will be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection.
آية: 17
وَلَقَدۡ خَلَقۡنَا فَوۡقَكُمۡ سَبۡعَ طَرَآئِقَ وَمَا كُنَّا عَنِ ٱلۡخَلۡقِ غَٰفِلِينَ
17. And indeed We have created above you seven heavens (one over the other), and We are never unaware of the creation.
آية: 18
وَأَنزَلۡنَا مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءَۢ بِقَدَرٖ فَأَسۡكَنَّـٰهُ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ وَإِنَّا عَلَىٰ ذَهَابِۭ بِهِۦ لَقَٰدِرُونَ
18. And We sent down from the sky water (rain) in (due) measure, and We gave it lodging in the earth, and verily, We are Able to take it away.
آية: 19
فَأَنشَأۡنَا لَكُم بِهِۦ جَنَّـٰتٖ مِّن نَّخِيلٖ وَأَعۡنَٰبٖ لَّكُمۡ فِيهَا فَوَٰكِهُ كَثِيرَةٞ وَمِنۡهَا تَأۡكُلُونَ
19. Then We brought forth for you therewith gardens of date-palms and grapes, wherein is much fruit for you, and whereof you eat.
آية: 20
وَشَجَرَةٗ تَخۡرُجُ مِن طُورِ سَيۡنَآءَ تَنۢبُتُ بِٱلدُّهۡنِ وَصِبۡغٖ لِّلۡأٓكِلِينَ
20. And a tree (olive) that springs forth from Mount Sinai, that grows (produces) oil, and (it is a) relish for the eaters.
آية: 21
وَإِنَّ لَكُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَنۡعَٰمِ لَعِبۡرَةٗۖ نُّسۡقِيكُم مِّمَّا فِي بُطُونِهَا وَلَكُمۡ فِيهَا مَنَٰفِعُ كَثِيرَةٞ وَمِنۡهَا تَأۡكُلُونَ
21. And verily in the cattle there is indeed a lesson for you. We give you to drink (milk) of that which is in their bellies. And there are, in them, numerous (other) benefits for you, and of them you eat.
_____________
115. "Did you think that We had created you in play (without any purpose), and that you would not be brought back to Us?"
آية: 116
فَتَعَٰلَى ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡمَلِكُ ٱلۡحَقُّۖ لَآ إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ رَبُّ ٱلۡعَرۡشِ ٱلۡكَرِيمِ
116. So Exalted be Allâh, the True King: Lâ ilâha illâ Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Lord of the Supreme Throne!
آية: 117
وَمَن يَدۡعُ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ لَا بُرۡهَٰنَ لَهُۥ بِهِۦ فَإِنَّمَا حِسَابُهُۥ عِندَ رَبِّهِۦٓۚ إِنَّهُۥ لَا يُفۡلِحُ ٱلۡكَٰفِرُونَ
117. And whoever invokes (or worships), besides Allâh, any other ilâh (god), of whom he has no proof; then his reckoning is only with his Lord. Surely! Al-Kâfirûn (the disbelievers in Allâh and in the Oneness of Allâh, polytheists, pagans, idolaters) will not be successful.
آية: 118
وَقُل رَّبِّ ٱغۡفِرۡ وَٱرۡحَمۡ وَأَنتَ خَيۡرُ ٱلرَّـٰحِمِينَ
118. And say (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم): "My Lord! Forgive and have mercy, for You are the Best of those who show mercy!"

Thank you ... love from a nurse..very happy to see a nurse practioner first time... can u please put vedios regarding iv fluid calculations ? & How to read ECG.
Thank you for the suggestions! I will try to work them in to future videos. Also, I have a giveaway for nurses on my newest video if you’d like to enter! Happy nurses week! 💖
Thank you dear
How we can know wich one the afected ear and unaffected ear before doing weber test
It was so helping .
Never understood these two tests :p
But I feel pain in elbows 😞
Glad it helped! 😊
Always wondered how that works...now I know. 👍 I said ouch everytime you activated the fork on your elbow. Lol.
Haha yea it was definitely started to feel a bit sore! 😆
@@thesunnyedge Lol...I was like...Ouch!...didn't that hurt! Haha. 😁
@@KavitaNagessar lol I actually edited out an “ouchhhh! That’s when I switched to the knee. 😂🤣
@@thesunnyedge 😂😂 I figured! Lol.
😄
Thank you Sandra for sharing these tests, I will soon be graduating after my clinical. We can think of collaborating. It would also be nice if you have a volunteer or partner doing the scenario or if married or if you have a boyfriend/husband, use him as your Pt !! Keep it up
Thank you! It’s hard to find volunteers for my video demonstrations because most people don’t want to be on camera so I just make do. 🤷🏼♀️
@@thesunnyedge You are right, I do educational videos as well and people are cameraphobic :). however, we have a lot to teach. I have my own home studio and I do it myself exactly the same as you do. I wish we were in the same city so that we could be working together. keep up the hard work Sandra, God bless !!
@@Wondistudio ah cool! I’ll have to check them out! Are you in the US?
@@thesunnyedge Yes I am, I am in MA. Do you have a Facebook link to share or email to reach you out?
Thx❤
You’re welcome!
Nice jani
❤️
Can refer to ENT who will then refer to an Audiologist whom are hearing specialists (Au.D.) that will do a thorough evaluation of a hearing function!
Good educational
Thank you
Sandra
Your so beautiful
Great video! It would be great if you could share some ER patient scenarios too!
Thank you for watching and for the suggestion! I will try to do that in the future. For now, if you need an ER fix, this ER doc has an amazing channel filled with tons of scenarios and procedures. I love watching his videos. czcams.com/users/DrERtv
@@thesunnyedge thank you I’ll check him out!
👍🏻
When we place the tuning fork outside the ear, does any sound can hear in normal case
Yes, if you hear any sound from the tuning fork when you move it in front of your ear that is considered normal.
what happens if through the bone conducting test the patient didn't hear anything at all ?
Great video what do you look for when listening? do you also have a reflex hammer? do you also have a vidio on the subject of ultrasound Thank you in advance
The tuning fork produces a humming noise and helps screen for hearing loss. I usually just use the end of my stethoscope as a reflex hammer when I need one and no, no ultrasound videos yet!
@@thesunnyedge Thank you Thank you what do you look for when listening? Many thanks in advance
When is another you listening to the heartbeat video coming out
I have a long list of other topics to get through
Hej hej!!! What is your specialty nowadays??
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
Unfortunately the DR I went to for waking up deaf didn’t do any test and stated 💯 wax . I took her word as she stated she sees patients almost daily whom presents with not being able to hear. Big city even

I didn't get the weber
To activate the tuning fork looks like it hurts
Haha it did after doing it so many times for this video 😆
Hi
You didn't explain Rinne test correctly, in Normal, air conduction should be at least twice as long as bone conduction.
In sensorineural hearing loss, air conduction is heard longer than bone conduction, but it is not heard to be twice.
In conductive hearing loss, the bone conduction sound is longer than or equal to the air conduction sound.
Thanks for your effort. Keep it up
