CME Certified Federal Medical Examiner

Category - Diagnostic Tests and Referrals

When testing a driver’s hearing, an examiner should check for each of the following EXCEPT:
  1. Ear disorders?
  2. Loss of hearing?
  3. Hallucinations?
  4. Loss of balance?
Explanation
Answer: C - Hallucinations?

Hallucinations are not related to hearing damage or loss, and there is no reason for a medical examiner to ask about a history of hallucinations during a hearing exam. However, it is acceptable to ask about ear disorders, loss of hearing and loss of balance, as these are all related to hearing loss and damage.
