A nurse is teaching a client about the Rinne test. Which of the following client statements indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: A tuning fork is placed on my head. In the Rinne test, a tuning fork is first placed against the client's mastoid bone behind the ear and then moved near the ear canal. The client should hear the sound louder when the fork is near the ear if the test is normal.
Choice A is incorrect because earphones are not used in the Rinne test.
Choice B is incorrect as a probe is not inserted into the ear.
Choice D is incorrect as electrodes are not part of the Rinne test. Placing a tuning fork on the head is the correct step in performing the Rinne test to assess hearing conduction.
