    A nurse performs the Weber test on a healthy adult client. The nurse would expect which of the following normal finding?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Air conduction greater than bone conduction: This is tested with the Rinne test, not the Weber test. B. Bilateral hearing loss: This is not a normal finding in the Weber test. C. No lateralization of vibrations: In a normal Weber test, the vibrations are heard equally in both ears, indicating no conductive or sensorineural hearing loss. D. Unilateral hearing loss: This would be abnormal and suggest hearing impairment in one ear.
