Product Information

This activity center/first aid kit set includes a small wellness station where one child can sit and be cared for while another child does the examination. If you’re a doctor specializing in critical care or cardiology, a cardiology or digital stethoscope may be the best choice. Prior to the 1960s, the esophageal stethoscope was a part of the routine intraoperative monitoring. [33] Earpieces [ edit ] Behere S, Baffa JM, Penfil S, Slamon N. Real-World Evaluation of the Eko Electronic Teleauscultation System. Pediatr Cardiol. 2019;40:154–60. The sensitivity of the acoustics: “You want a diaphragm and bell to allow you to hear various frequencies and vibrations.”

This stethoscope bundle has a durable, waterproof carrying case that keeps the product secure. This may be a good option for someone who is looking for a stethoscope they can bring while traveling.

For murmurs detection, the in-person auscultation agreement between Stemoscope and the acoustic stethoscope was 91% ( p = 0.67). The agreement between Stemoscope tele-auscultation and the acoustic stethoscope in-person auscultation was 90% ( p = 0.32). When using the echocardiographic findings as the reference, the agreement between Stemoscope (tele-auscultation) and the acoustic stethoscope (in-person auscultation) was 89% vs. 86% ( p = 1.00). The system evaluated by ten cardiologists is considered easy to use, and most of them would consider using it in a telemedical setting.

Perfect Gift for kids: This kids doctor sets was recommended for kids age 3 years and up.They can dress like a Doctor with cap. Perfect for party, pretend play, role play, school classroom, holiday toy gifts, Christmas gifts and more A Doppler stethoscope is an electronic device that measures the Doppler effect of ultrasound waves reflected from organs within the body. Motion is detected by the change in frequency, due to the Doppler effect, of the reflected waves. Hence the Doppler stethoscope is particularly suited to deal with moving objects such as a beating heart.
