Hartman Aluminum Tuning Forks
Crafted from lightweight, high-quality aluminum, our Hartman Aluminum Tuning Forks are essential diagnostic tools for healthcare professionals, particularly in the fields of otolaryngology (ENT), neurology, and orthopedics. Known for their precise frequency generation and clear, resonant tones, these tuning forks enable clinicians to assess auditory function, vibration sensation, and neurological integrity. We offer C 128, C 256, C 512, C 1024, and C 2048 tuning forks, individually and as a set.
- Precision-Calibrated Frequencies: Each Hartman Tuning Fork is calibrated to specific frequencies to allow for versatile diagnostic applications, from testing bone conduction in hearing evaluations to assessing peripheral nerve function.
- Aluminum Construction: Made of durable, non-corrosive aluminum, these tuning forks are lightweight and easy to handle, providing a comfortable grip for precise application during patient examinations.
- Clear Resonance: The high-quality aluminum material produces a long-lasting, pure tone, ensuring accurate assessments of vibratory sensation and auditory conduction without interference.
- Two-Pronged Design: The classic two-pronged structure of the tuning fork allows for controlled vibration and sound production, enabling clinicians to focus on specific areas of the body during testing.
Applications:
- Hearing Tests: Commonly used in the Rinne and Weber tests to assess conductive and sensorineural hearing loss, helping clinicians determine the type and location of hearing impairment.
- Neurological Assessments: Ideal for assessing vibration sensation in patients, especially for detecting neuropathy in diabetic patients or peripheral nerve disorders.
- Fracture Diagnosis: In orthopedics, Hartman Tuning Forks can be used to detect fractures. Their vibration may cause discomfort over a fracture site, aiding in initial diagnosis.
- Post-Surgical Evaluations: Useful for evaluating the effectiveness of nerve repair surgeries by testing vibratory sensation recovery.
