Hartmann Tunning Fork C 64

Clinical Application

This two‑pronged diagnostic instrument is used for clinical assessment of hearing and vibration perception at the bedside and in clinic settings. Common applications include performing Rinne and Weber tests to differentiate conductive from sensorineural hearing loss, and testing vibration sense over bony prominences when assessing peripheral neuropathy or spinal cord function. It is suitable for use by otolaryngologists, audiologists, neurologists, primary care clinicians and in ambulatory surgery centers for preoperative screening.

Design & Configuration

The classic two‑tine geometry produces a stable resonant vibration when activated by a tap. The rigid stem serves as a convenient handle for positioning and transmits vibration cleanly to the clinician’s finger or directly to the patient’s mastoid, forehead, or other bony landmarks. This simple configuration provides reproducible tactile and auditory cues that aid rapid comparative testing of bone conduction versus air conduction and assessment of vibratory sensation.
