Description
The 3M Littmann Lightweight II Stethoscope represents decades of acoustic engineering excellence in a compact, comfortable design. This 28-inch stethoscope features a black tube and is specifically designed for healthcare professionals who require reliable cardiac, pulmonary, and general physical assessment capabilities without the weight of heavier models. Weighing significantly less than traditional stethoscopes, it reduces neck strain during extended use while maintaining the superior acoustic performance Littmann is renowned for. The stethoscope features a dual-head chestpiece that allows for both high and low frequency sound detection, making it versatile for examining adults and children. The comfortable earpieces are designed to seal properly for optimal sound transmission, while the durable construction ensures years of reliable service. 3M Littmann has been the gold standard in medical acoustics for over 50 years, trusted by healthcare professionals worldwide. This model is perfect for students, nurses, EMTs, and physicians who need a lightweight yet professional-grade diagnostic tool for daily clinical practice.
Suggested Use
Place earpieces in ears with the ear tips pointing forward. Position the chestpiece firmly against the patient's skin for optimal sound transmission. Use the larger bell side for low-frequency sounds like heart murmurs, and the smaller diaphragm side for high-frequency sounds like lung sounds and normal heart sounds. Clean with isopropyl alcohol between patients.
