Anatomy
•The ear is responsible for hearing and balance
•Consists of 3 regions•External ear•Middle ear•Inner ear
![Page 5: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Structure and Function• External Ear > auricle/pinna - movable cartilage covered with skin - Mastoid process= important Landmark
External Auditory Canal - S-shaped pathway leading to the ME - 2.5 to 3 cm. long in adult
![Page 6: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
-Its skeleton of bone and cartilage is covered with sensitive skin ( outer 1/3 is cartilage, inner 2/3 consists of bone)
-This canal lining is protected and lubricated with cerumen
![Page 7: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

MIDDLE EAR
>air filled cavity in the temporal bone
->It contains the ossicles ( malleus, incus,stapes) that transmit sound from the TM to the oval window of the inner ear
![Page 11: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
MIDDLE EAR>Tympanic membrane (eardrum) separates external and middle ear.• Translucent membrane• Pearly, gray color• Cone of light reflection when using otoscope
• Oval and slightly concave shape, pulled in at center by malleus
![Page 12: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Middle ear
>Openings to Outer ear covered by tympanic membraneInner ear = oval and round windowsEustachian tube connects middle ear to the nasopharnyx for air passage (normally closed, opens with swallowing/yawning)
![Page 13: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
![Page 14: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
![Page 15: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Middle ear has 3 functions1. Conducts sound vibration
from outer ear to inner ear2. Protects the inner ear by
reducing the amplitude of loud sounds
3. Eustachian tube allows equalization of air pressure on each side of the ear drum to avoid rupture ( high altitudes)
![Page 16: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Inner Ear
• Contains the Bony Labyrinth which holds the sensory organs for hearing and equilibrium1.Vestibule2.Semicircular canals3.Cochlea (contains the
central hearing apparatus)
![Page 17: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
![Page 18: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Function of hearing• 3 levels
1. Peripheral > ear transmits sound and converts
its vibrations into electrical impulses > The electrical impulses are
conducted by the auditory process of cranial nerve VIII (Acoustic) to the brain stem 1. Amplitude=loudness2. Frequency=pitch
![Page 19: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Sound waves cause the eardrum to vibrate
> Vibrations travel via the ossicles thru the oval window > the cochlea > to the round window where they are dissipated
![Page 20: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Vibrations in the basilar membrane of the cochlea that contain the organ of Corti receptor hair cells > translate the vibrations to electric impulses
> The stimulated impulses go to the brainstem via Acoustic nerve (VIII)
![Page 21: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
2. Brain stem- permits identification of
sound and locating the direction of a sound in space.
- Sensitive to intensity and timing from the ears
depending on head position3. Cerebral cortex- Intreprets the meaning of the
sound and begins the appropriate response
![Page 22: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Pathways of hearing
1.Air conduction (AC)– normal pathway of hearing, the most efficient
2.Bone conduction (BC)– bones of the skull vibrate and transmit vibrations to the inner ear and acoustic nerve
![Page 23: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Physical Examination
• The Auricle 1) inspect each auricle for size , shape, symmetry, color, position on the head, deformities, nodules and lesions
2) If ear pain, discharge or inflammation is
present, move the auricle up and down
![Page 26: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
3) Note tenderness of pinna and mastoid area. Press the tragus and press firmly behind the ear
![Page 27: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Physical Examination
• Auricle-Extends slightly outward from the skull
-Positioned in a nearly vertical plane-The origin of the helix should be on a horizontal line with corner of the eye
- It should have the same color as the facial skin w/o moles, cysts & other lesions
![Page 28: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Otoscopic Exam1) Tip the patient’s head to the
opposite side2)Grasp the auricle firmly but
gently, while pulling it upward, backward and slightly outward
3)Insert into the canal, sl down and forward, the largest ear speculum that the canal will accommodate
![Page 29: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

4) Observe the ff: - patency of the ear canal - describe the walls of the ear canal. Note
any redness or swelling - identify any discharge, presence of cerumen or FB in the ear canal
- tympanic membrane
![Page 33: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Inspect using Otoscope
•External canal•Color•Swelling•Lesions•Discharge ; color and odor. Clean or change speculum before examining other ear.
![Page 34: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Tympanic membrane
•Color – normal is shiny, translucent, pearl-grey
• Landmarks ( umbo, handle of malleus, light reflex)
•Position – flat, slightly pulled in at the center and flutters when person holds nose and swallows
• Integrity of membrane – intact
![Page 35: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

•Perform the otoscope exam prior to hearing tests.
![Page 37: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Hearing Evaluation
1.Rough quantitative test for hearing loss
2.Whisper test3.Tuning fork
![Page 38: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
•Rough quantitative test for hearing loss
- begins when the patient responds to your questions and directions. The patient responds without excessive requests for repetition
- Speech with a monotonous tone and erratic volume may indicate hearing loss
![Page 39: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
WHISPER TEST
•Begins with the history-Conversational tone
•The following tests may indicate the presence of hearing loss but not the degree.
![Page 40: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
•Place your mouth at the side of the patient’s head ( 2 ft.) from her ear with the far ear covered
•Whisper test questions that can’t be answered by yes or no
•Test consistently with loud, medium and soft tones
![Page 41: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
•Repeat on the opposite ear using another word, have the client identify the words (Used to detect high-tone loss)
•Normal Response to Voice test•Correct identification of whispered words bilaterally
![Page 42: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
TUNING FORK TESTS•Measure hearing by air conduction and bone conduction
•Frequency of fork is 256-1024 cycles/sec.
•To activate the tuning fork, hold it by the stem and strike the tines softly on the back of the hand
![Page 43: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
TUNING FORK TEST•Weber test > used when hearing is reported as better in one ear than the other ( bone conduction)
> with normal neurosensory hearing and no conductive loss, the sounds are equal in both ears
![Page 44: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
> lateralization of the sound to one ear indicates a conductive loss on the same
side or a perceptive loss/sensorineural loss on the other side
![Page 45: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
• Weber Test
![Page 46: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
• Rinne test – compares bone conduction and air conduction1.Normally sound is heard 2X
as long by air conduction as by bone conduction
2.Normal response ; positive Rinne Test = AC>BC Bilaterally
Sound is heard longer by BC with a conductive loss.
![Page 47: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

COMMON DISORDERS OF THE EAR• Otitis Externa a) Acute external otitis -due to Ps.aeruginosa, staph, strep,
proteus - pain maybe mild or severe accentuated
by movement of the pinna - swimmers’ ear - preauricular, postauricular , Ant cervical
LN
![Page 84: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
b) Chronic external otitis - commonly due to bacteria and fungal
- pruritus is the main complain instead of pain
- aural discharge maybe present
![Page 85: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
•Otitis Mediaa) Chronic suppurative otitis media
- ass. with permanent perforation of the eardrum
-hearing is always impaired - painless aural discharge - pain and vertigo indicates development of complications like brain abscess
![Page 86: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
b) Cholesteatoma - collection of desquamated epithelial cells in the middle ear
- foul smelling discharge, marginal perforation,hearing loss, pearly gray mass
superior part of tympanic membrane
- eustachian tube dysfunction causes
retraction of tympanic membrane
![Page 87: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
• Vertiginous disordera) Acute Labyrinthitis - most frequent cause of vertigo - patient gradually develop a
sense of whirling that reaches a climax in 24-48 hrs. disappear gradually in 3-6 wks.
- N/V may occur at the height of symptoms
- no accompanying tinnitus or hearing loss
![Page 88: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
b) Benign Paroxysmal positional Vertigo
(BPPV)-Calcium deposits in the labyrinth ( otoliths)
are dislodged and move in response to gravity eliciting a feeling of motion
-More common in older individuals-Sudden onset, often when rolling over in bed or arising in the morning
-No headaches/fever but with nausea and inability to stand
-Avoid any head motion to lessen symptoms

SINUSES• Paranasal sinuses
- air-filled paired extensions of the nasal cavities within the bones of the skull
- lined with mucous membranes and cilia that move secretions along excretory pathways
- sinus openings are narrow, susceptible to occlusion> resulting in inflammation /sinusitis.
- drained into the medial meatus
![Page 100: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)

• Nose – Inspect and palpate
• INSPECT for:• Symmetry, deformity• Inflammation• Skin lesions• Color • Nasal flaring• discharges
![Page 105: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
•Palpate - ridge & soft tissues of the nose - note any displacement of the bone,
cartilage - note for tenderness & any mass
- The nasal structures should be firm and stable to palpation
- if with injury, palpate gently
![Page 106: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
•Test for sense of smell (CN 1)
•Evaluate the patency of the nose
- nasal breathing should be noiseless and easy thru the open nares
![Page 107: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)
Nasal Cavity Use the nasal speculum and
good light source to inspect the nasal cavity
a) Nasal mucosa - inspect for color, discharge,
lesions, masses - it should appear deep pink
( pinker than the buccal mucosa) & glistening
![Page 108: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
b) nasal septum - In normal adult, the nasal septum is seldom precisely a midline structure
- No perforations, bleeding or crusting should be apparent
- a film of clear discharge is often apparent on the nasal septum
![Page 109: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
c) Nasal Turbinates - only the inferior and middle turbinates will be visible
- it should be the same color as the surrounding area and have a firm consistency
![Page 110: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/110.jpg)

• Paranasal Sinuses: Inspect and Palpate
• Press thumbs over frontal & maxillary sinuses ( palpate the cheeks and supraorbital ridges)
• No tenderness or swelling over the soft tissue should be present
![Page 112: Sensory Disorders](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061110/545370eaaf79597e708b65ca/html5/thumbnails/112.jpg)
•Transillumination test a) Frontal & Maxillary sinuses
b) nasal septum-Best perform in a dark room-Look for a bright light in the supraorbital ridge
and maxilla-Look for deviation, perforation, masses in the
transilluminated septum
