Description
Aluminum instrument of various colors with a U-shape attached to a handle that allows it to vibrate producing a tone of 512 Hz. Among the other accumetric tests that can be performed with tuning forks, the Rinne and Weber tests stand out. To use it, it is recommended to strike the tuning fork against the elbow or knee of the evaluator to generate the relevant vibration and then place it parallel to the ear (at the level of the CAE or mastoid process depending on the pathway to be assessed) to detect whether the patient is able to perceive the sound generated (intensity, duration…).
Available in various colors.
