How do Cardiology IV benefits assist diagnosis?

The 3M Littmann Cardiology IV stethoscope range is the result of decades of progressive medical science. Although modern stethoscopes appear familiar to their old-fashioned counterparts, there are numerous improvements that make a big difference in the lives of patients and treating doctors. Cardiology IV benefits include:

Chestpiece: Fully optimised for both paediatric and adult use with greater range of auscultation sounds. Simple pressure adjustment on the chestpiece enables fast detection of both low-frequency and high-frequency sounds.

Tubing: Long-lasting, innovative tubing using aerospace engineered materials instead of harmful latex and phthalate plasticisers.

Headset and Eartubes: Ergonomically design and manufacture facilitates greater comfort, particularly for people with sensitive ears. Headset tension is also easily adjusted for personalised comfort and procedural approach.

Eartips: Snap-on Littmann eartips provide additional comfort and safety, Soft-sealing and acoustic high-performers, Littmann eartips ensure maximum auscultation exactly where it’s required.

Why is next-generation tubing important?

As members of a caring profession dedicated to the health and wellbeing of everyone, doctors appreciate setting the right example in all aspects of their work. Environmentally friendly manufacture and safe recycling are important components of a caring profession dedicated to health, and Littmann’s next-generation tubing is a prime example. Wherever possible, Littmann Stethoscope products use pure metals and components that are manufactured to last, and Littmann backs up the brand ethic with a full 7-year warranty on their products. Next-generation tubing provides superior diagnostic capabilities courtesy of dual sound pathways that cancel out unwanted friction sounds.

Are there tuneable diaphragm advantages?

A major progression with the Littmann Cardiology IV stethoscope range is the tuneable diaphragm that has been optimised for convenient and precise use. The diaphragm is easily adjusted by simple pressure for acoustic reception of high-frequency and low-frequency sounds used in diagnosis of a range of ailments.

Bell mode (low frequencies): Resting the chestpiece lightly on the appropriate area suspends the diaphragm membrane, facilitating resonation of low-frequency sounds.

Diaphragm mode (high frequencies): using firmer pressure on the chestpiece restricts diaphragm movement, allowing maximum uptake of high-frequency sounds.

Form and function are both quality Littmann stethoscope traits that are appreciated by Mentone Educational customers who require specialised device utilities and a comfortable fit for long-term use.
