[@ebrady61491]

Dr. Pepin, thank you so much! I am a nurse practitioner student and this has helped me tremendously. Most of us also use Bates!

Hi! I would like to ask what would be a good substitute for the tuning fork? Thank you.

[@MarkPepin]

To my knowledge, the tuning fork is the only correct way to perform the Rinne and Weber tests. Regarding other measures, a few crude hearing assessments are commonly used. As demonstrated, rubbing your fingers to produce a faint frictional sound works fine; if they can hear your fingers rubbing (on both sides), this effectively rules-out a hearing deficit. However, their inability to hear your fingers does not necessarily indicate poor hearing. As an equivalent option, whispering words (“1, 2, 3” or “baseball”) also work fine, but depend on the examiner’s ability to control their whisper! Regardless, performing these exams in a quiet room is essential. I hope that answers your question!

Thank you so so much

Why would you want to wear two watches?

[@MarkPepin]

Just an idiosyncrasy... I like Apple Watch for reminders (email, etc...), but I also like seeing seconds (counting pulse, breathing, etc...).

[@mariammagdyBisharaBanob]

Is HEENT done by doctor or RN?

[@MarkPepin]

Well, neither yet. I am in my final year of medical school (MD-PhD student).

[@mikehunt3420]

He is wearing two watches

[@Socialisten]

The woman is a doctor right ...

[@MarkPepin]

She has since graduated from PA school and is working as a hospitalist. She is an outstanding educator and medical professional.

[@Socialisten]

@@MarkPepin Yeah okay, she seemed to know what was going on :). It is funny to see these fall pockets of time past. Some recordings are close to 10 years old, while it could almost seem like it was yesterday.

[@kaal4318]

Great

[@JohnBrown-eo3iy]

Wow even without saying ahhh you can see in the back of her throat that's awesome

[@BudSchnelker]

I hate to be that guy, but the patient is a fox.

[@PatHaskell]

I think he has a tic.

[@MarkPepin]

It’s just discomfort from a separated right shoulder (i.e. torn acromioclavicular ligament when I was hit by a car on my bike).

[@TheAlemon111]

Thank you so much for this video. Super helpful
