Littmann Classic III Monitoring Stethoscope: Raspberry 5648

Suitable for: It's here! The next generation of a clinical icon Introducing the brand new Littmann Classic III stethoscope from 3M Littmann. With the first major upgrade of the iconic Littmann stethoscope in 18 years, the NEW industry standard has arrived! The Classic III stethoscope brings new design, materials, and technology to the Littmann stethoscope series that’s been used and trusted by millions of medical professionals worldwide for decades. With a two-sided chestpiece, dual tunable diaphragms, improved tubing, and much more, the Classic III stethoscope combines the best of new and traditional. As with the Cardiology III, full adult and pediatric auscultation is available through its dual head chestpiece simply by rotating the central spline to alternate between the two sides. The more compact one piece diaphragm and rim assemblies have further increased acoustic sensitivity. The binaurals have been redesigned with larger diameter ear tubes and a thicker single lumen binaural to transfer sound more effectively. The selector spline is now recessed to allow a flush fit with the binaural tube and now features a visual indicator for easy identification of the operational diaphragm. Features NEW double-sided, dual diaphragm chestpiece for both adult and pediatric assessment. NEW: The pediatric side is also easily transformed into a traditional open bell by replacing the single-piece diaphragm with the supplied non-chill rim. NEW chestpiece is precision-machined into an aesthetically pleasing, less angular shape. NEW single-piece diaphragm instead of separate diaphragm/rim making it easier to attach and easier to clean due to the smooth unbroken surface. NEW: The stem features an open side indicator to easily identify which diaphragm is in operation. NEW next-generation tubing gives even longer tube life with improved resistance to skin oils, alcohol and staining. 3M’s ‘Tunable Technology’ lets you easily switch from low to high frequency sounds by switching from light to firm pressure on both the adult and pediatric sides of the chestpiece. High acoustic sensitivity when performing general physical assessment. Laser engraving of text and symbols to personalise your scope and avoid theft/loss. Larger ear tubes on the anatomically designed headset comfortably positioned for better sound transfer. Easy adjustment by simply squeezing or pulling apart the eartubes. Comfortable Snap-Tight soft seal eartips create an excellent acoustic seal to reduce ambient noise. No natural rubber latex plasticisers are used in the tubing or any other component—to help protect health and the environment. Complement your personal style with Littmann’s large range of chestpiece finishes and tubing colors. Used as a diagnostic aid as part of the physical assessment of a patient. 5 year warranty includes free repair on any manufacturing or material defects. Littmann performance rating of 7 out of 10. Tubing: Raspberry (69cm/27.2"). Finish: Stainless Steel Allows you to more reliably and consistently hear heart sounds at  lower frequencies (below 120Hz*) like Korotkoff sounds, Mitral Stenosis, and S3 and S4 Gallops when compared to other leading stethoscopes. Weighs less** than other stethoscopes. New chestpiece design Precision machined engineering Dual diaphragm Adult and pediatric sides both with tunable diaphragm Low Frequencies (adult) Apply light pressure with the floating diaphragm. (Bell mode) High Frequencies (Adult) Apply firm pressure with the floating diaphragm. (Diaphragm mode) Low Frequencies (Pediatric) Rotate the chestpiece. Apply light pressure. High Frequencies (Pediatric) Apply firm pressure with the small floating diaphragm. Traditional bell Transforms into a traditional open bell with the adapter provided. Stem indicator Visual identification of the operational diaphragm. Versatility Easily interchangeable between open bell and tunable diaphragm, giving three possible functions. Laser Engraving Medisave offer a laser engraving service on all of our Littmann Stethoscopes (and many other items of diagnostic equipment). Because we recognise the value and quality of your tools we have invested in the highest quality equipment and technicians to give you probably the finest engraving service available in the US (superior to our competitor’s more expensive efforts). The end result is an elegant, permanent, precision mark on the surface of the chestpiece, allowing you to show a little of your personality and, more importantly, deterring thieves and making it easier to retrieve your scope should you misplace it. The service does not delay your order and next day delivery services are available. HIGH QUALITY | NO DELAY | NEXT DAY DELIVERY *Based on tests against globally-available comparable stethoscopes in an equivalent class using recorded heart sounds with diaphragm. ** Based on published weights of globally-available comparable stethoscopes in an equivalent class.
