Latrina Walden Audio Review
Rinne test - Answer-hearing test using a tuning fork; checks for differences in bone conduction and air
conduction
Placed on the mastoid process (BC) and then by the ear for AC.
***In hearing loss BC > AC
Webber Tuning Fork Test - Answer-Placed on the forehead or top of the head (I envision that this makes
a "W" even though the tuning fork makes a "U")
***Weber lateralizes to the bad ear.
diabetic retinopathy - Answer-occurs when diabetes damages the tiny blood vessels in the retina,
causing blood to leak into the posterior segment of the eyeball
