Rinne test information


Rinne test
ICD-10-PCSF13Z0ZZ
ICD-9-CM95.42
MeSHD006320

The Rinne test (/ˈrɪnə/ RIN) is used primarily to evaluate loss of hearing in one ear.[1] It compares perception of sounds transmitted by air conduction to those transmitted by bone conduction through the mastoid. Thus, one can quickly screen for the presence of conductive hearing loss.[2]

A Rinne test should always be accompanied by a Weber test to also detect sensorineural hearing loss and thus confirm the nature of hearing loss.

The Rinne test was named after German otologist Heinrich Adolf Rinne (1819–1868);[3][4] the Weber test was named after Ernst Heinrich Weber (1795–1878).
