Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assisting with teaching a class about physiological changes to hearing in older adult clients. Which of the following should the nurse include?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Decreased ability to hear high-frequency sounds. As people age, the sensory cells in the inner ear that detect high-frequency sounds tend to deteriorate, leading to a decreased ability to hear those sounds. This is known as presbycusis.

Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because aging does not necessarily result in decreased thickness of tympanic membranes, decreased tinnitus, or decreased ear wax production.
Therefore, the most relevant physiological change to hearing in older adults that the nurse should include in the teaching is the decreased ability to hear high-frequency sounds.
