[@olenickel6013]

@@ceciliavernes9097 In case you want to know: they are used to assess pallesthesia, i. e. your ability to feel vibration (which is a separate sense from touch, temperature, pain...) They come with a scale on the end of the tuning fork that allows you to assign a higher number, usually up to 8, the slower the fork vibrates. So you ask the patient to tell you when he stops feeling the vibrations coming from the fork held against a body part and that gives you a good first idea of if his pallesthesia in that region is intact.

Sounds about right. I remember rounding on the Ortho patients who had just had surgery when I was a 4th yr med student. The ortho resident's only goal was to see they were breathing. They couldn't tell you which joint was operated on or replaced unless it was theirs, and their only goal was to get to the OR as quick as possible.

[@jeannesherrill]
