Question

  1. the results of a patients rinne test are below. do the results represent normal hearing or not normal hearing? how do you know? (2pts)

results: bone conduction - 25 seconds; air conduction - 50 seconds.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In a Rinne test, normal hearing is indicated when air conduction (AC) is greater than bone conduction (BC). Here, air conduction (50 seconds) is twice as long as bone conduction (25 seconds), which follows the normal pattern (AC > BC).

Answer:

Yes, the results represent normal hearing. Because in normal hearing, air conduction is greater than bone conduction, and here air conduction (50 seconds) is greater than bone conduction (25 seconds).
