  1. An Interesting Finding Regarding Kila Lab's Single-Head

    beyondx4 posted a topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Some of you may have read my earlier review postings on various stethoscopes from Kila Labs and GRX Medical (the CD27 is just amazing). I've been using Kila's single-head stethoscope...

  2. Anymore feedback on the GRX Medical Expert Cardiology CD-27 stethoscope?

    beyondx4 replied to CaringMama's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Yep. That is the CD27 stethoscope. Don't forget you could also pick your colors when you order. If you've never used these Cardiology III-type scopes, keep in mind they're a little bit heavier than...

  3. Anymore feedback on the GRX Medical Expert Cardiology CD-27 stethoscope?

    beyondx4 replied to CaringMama's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I've owned a couple of Littmanns myself and was introduced to the GRX CD27 last year and I still love it. Sound quality is excellent, probably only topped by the Master Cardiology (which has a bigger...

  4. An Interesting Finding Regarding Kila Lab's Single-Head

    beyondx4 replied to beyondx4's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Thanks. I've been trying to get as much feedbacks on the CD27 as possible to ensure that it's not just me and I'm not recommending the wrong equipments to fellow students. When I was first recommended...

  5. An Interesting Finding Regarding Kila Lab's Single-Head

    beyondx4 replied to beyondx4's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    CNA_Timmy, That was some work you had to go through. I'm glad it's all cleared up; however, I doubt if your nursing director will be able to enforce his/her authoritarian rulings upon the nursing...

  6. An Interesting Finding Regarding Kila Lab's Single-Head

    beyondx4 replied to beyondx4's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    CNA_Timmy, Hmmm, registered to FDA? I think that is one of the most ridiculous **** I've ever heard. I don't recall even seeing an FDA registration certificate with either my Littmann Classic II Se or...

  7. An Interesting Finding Regarding Kila Lab's Single-Head

    beyondx4 replied to beyondx4's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    CNA_Timmy, Make sure your nursing school allows students to use single-head scopes. Honestly, if any student asks me what scope I would recommend, I wouldn't hesitate telling them to get the GRX CD27...

  8. An Interesting Finding Regarding Kila Lab's Single-Head

    beyondx4 replied to beyondx4's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    GlenCoco, With my limited experience, I'm not aware of another company that makes a single-head stethoscope that is so close in specifications to the Littmann MC as the Kila single-head. The only GRX...

  9. An Interesting Finding Regarding Kila Lab's Single-Head

    beyondx4 replied to beyondx4's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    No, actually, I'm not that good of a salesman. I've made a career change from computer network engineering into the health industry recently. It's ok if you wanted to go with the majority and buy the...

  10. Kila

    beyondx4 replied to keaton90's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    kylesscreenname, i've ordered from kila multiple times and have never received boxes like these. the boxes should be similar in style and quality to, say, a 3m littmann box. email them and complain...

  11. Littmann Cardiology III Stethoscope or Classic II S.E?

    beyondx4 replied to futurern123's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I think most students make it a bigger deal than it really is. Trust me, there will be many things in nursing school that will stress you out much more. You seem like you're set on the Littmanns. The...

  12. Kila

    beyondx4 replied to keaton90's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I used to have a Littman Classic II SE throughout nursing school and it was great until it disappeared. I do have a Cardiology III as a gift that I also love but don't use too often because I don't...

  13. Littmann Cardiology III Stethoscope or Classic II S.E?

    beyondx4 replied to futurern123's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Inspire, To be honest, having the Littmann Cardiology III still feels so cool...it's like having a Porsche or a Ferrari; however, note that the recent Nissan GT-R from Japan has spanked both the...

  14. Littmann Cardiology III Stethoscope or Classic II S.E?

    beyondx4 replied to futurern123's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    2bnursesteph2010, It's a good idea to start out in nursing school with a quality scope that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I'd hate to make recommendations because what may sound good to me may not to...

  15. Littmann Cardiology III Stethoscope or Classic II S.E?

    beyondx4 replied to futurern123's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I'm not sure why most nursing students are just stressing and drooling over these Littmann stethoscopes, mostly because of the brand name. I'm guilty of this trend myself, as I own a Classic II SE and...

  16. Kila

    beyondx4 replied to keaton90's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I'm currently using both the Kila single-head and dual-head stethoscopes. The dual-head's performance is about on par with my Littman Classic II SE and much better than my Sprague. Recently though,...

  17. ati RN comprehensive predictor 3.0

    beyondx4 replied to mark3274's topic in General Students

    In addition, I think the main problem with getting very good scores on the ATI predictor is because of its timing, which is right next to the finals along with the hospital preceptorship period before...

  18. ati RN comprehensive predictor 3.0

    beyondx4 replied to mark3274's topic in General Students

    I went to the admin who deals with ATI in our school to get these numbers. Unfortunately, she has not been able to get an official scoring guide on the newest ATI predictor exam yet; however, just for...

  19. ati RN comprehensive predictor 3.0

    beyondx4 replied to mark3274's topic in General Students

    Some schools are starting to receive the newer ATI Comprehensive Predictor based on the 2007 NCLEX-RN test plan. The older version 3.0 has been used for the last few years and may stay until next year...
