          Sound makes music – Medical tuning forks on the DocCheck store

          In the world of music, the tuning fork is used to tune the chamber note of musical instruments to the same pitch, while in medicine it is used to check the patient's sensation of vibration. Tuning forks are an integral part of the equipment in acoustic and ENT medicine, whether it is used as a vibrating fork or a medical fork. On the DocCheck store you will find a wide range of tuning forks in various models. Browse our assortment and order the model that suits you best.

          Tuning forks in neurology and audiometry

          Tuning forks are similar to simple two-pronged metal forks that can be set in vibration. In medicine, tuning forks are mainly used in neurology and otolaryngology. Medical tuning forks are mainly used to diagnose different diseases such as diabetes, toxic nerve damage, bacterial inflammation or hearing disorders. In neurology, the tuning fork is used to check pallesthesia. A good tuning fork can contribute to the early diagnosis of a decrease in sensitivity to vibrations. Thus, the beginning of a nervous system lesion can be treated as soon as possible. The Rydel-Seiffer tuning fork test consists of placing the tuning fork on superficial bony protrusions, for example on the ankle. Neuropathy may be suspected if the patient does not perceive the vibrations during the tuning fork test. The neurological tuning fork is considered to be one of the most reliable and safest methods of testing sensitivity.

          In audiometry, medical tuning forks can be used to perform orientation hearing tests to locate possible hearing disorders. The best known examples are the Weber test and the Rinne test. Airborne sound usually reaches the eardrum through the external ear canal during the hearing test. This sound can then be perceived by the patient via sound. However, the patient can also perceive it when the tip of the tuning fork is placed on the skull bone and the bones of the head transmit the sound to the inner ear.
