Intensity of Vibration
tuning fork with weight C 64. Our model is widely used as a device to assess the degree of impairment of vibration sensitivity in pallanaesthetic patients.
It can be used to diagnose nerve disorders dened as polyneuropathies, which manifest themselves in the form of impaired vibration sensitivity. The symptom is found in the following diseases:
• Diabetes
• Toxic nerve damage
• Alcoholism
• Neuritis of bacterial origin
The product is intended for use only by appropriately trained
The GIMA tuning fork is very easy to use, and by taking just a few
precautions it can be used for many years.Do not use the device
if any signs of damage are found. Contact your dealer.
REQUIREMENTS
and specialised medical personnel.
The Rydel-Seier tuning fork generates two dierent frequencies: note C = 64 Hz with the weights (as indicated on the weights) and note c = 128 Hz without the weights (as indicated on the tuning fork itself). The weights must be attached at the level of the lowest notch on the arms of the tuning fork. The mark “C 64” on the weights, the mark “c 128” on the front of the tuning fork and the gradation must all be facing the user when the weight is positioned. The knurled screws are tightened to secure the weights and loosened to remove them. Once the weights are in place, they must be tightened rmly.
EASE OF USE:
There are two triangles on the weights, one white and one black, each featuring a scale from 2 to 8.
Vibration intensity
When the tuning fork is struck against the ngertip of the thumb (never strike it against objects that are too hard, such as sheet metal, steel or stone), the arms begin to oscillate and two triangles become visible on each weight. As soon as the oscillation decreases, the two triangles gradually move closer together again and their point of intersection moves upwards. The scale shows the intensity of the vibrations. This can be read either from the white triangle or from the black one, depending on the amount of light available, or depending on which scale is easier to read. To determine the degree of insensitivity to vibrations, the tuning fork is touched and its plastic base is placed against the olecranon or processus mastoideus.
The patient must then indicate the point at which they stop feeling vibrations. The vibration intensity at that precise moment is read on the scale. The following values can be considered normal:
• Patients below the age of 60: between 6 and 8
ENGLISH
• Patients above the age of 60: between 4 and 8
Vibration sensitivity in the foot region can be checked by placing the tuning fork against the head of the bula, the inner malleolus, the head of the metatarsus and the tip of the hallux. The patient must once again indicate the point at which they stop feeling vibrations. When a neuropathy is present, there is generally a symmetrical decrease of vibration sensitivity at the periphery compared to the proximal values, especially at the front of the foot. The extent of the neuropathy can be determined more accurately by placing the tuning fork at successive points along the edge of the tibia.
Patients with decreased sensitivity due to sensory neuropathy are especially prone to foot injuries because they usually do not feel them until it is too late.
The tuning fork cannot be sterilised after use. It must be cleaned using a dry or slightly oily cloth.
