Reassessing the Rinne Test: Importance of a Three-Frequency Tuning Fork Evaluation. [PDF]

OTO Open
Abstract Objective (1) To evaluate the accuracy of the Rinne test in the diagnosis of conductive hearing loss (CHL) at the frequencies of 512, 1024 and 2048 Hz comparing to standard audiometry. (2) To define a possible linear relationship between the frequencies of the tuning forks and the proportional increase in the air‐bone gap (ABG).
