Uhmmm, that would be a NO. I wear 2 BTE aids and there would be no place to put the ear buds of the stethascope.

I'm still waiting for the E-scope. You can't use a regular stethoscope with in the ear aids. It has headphones instead of earpieces.

I really don't like having to constantly take them out/put them back in. Sometimes this happens in front of families when I need to take an urgent listen when responding to an alarm, etc. No one has said anything yet. At this point I use a cardiology stethoscope - it's great.

I just don't like endangering that expensive technology with the in and out thing as well.


Your employer is supposed to make reasonable accomodations for you - like the stethoscope, earpiece for phone, etc. Get with your NM or Employee Health for what you need to do for your accomodations under the ADA.

I've thought about it for a while. I have 80% loss on the R but that is the side my wife sits on when we are driving or watching tele- I'm not sure I want to hear more on that side!
