Stethoscope for fall 2012

I got a allheart cardio... What kind are you buying!?

I bought the ADC convertible cardiology. I like it so far, although sometimes it's a little too sensitive. Like I can hear my arthritic joints creaking and people talking across the room in it. I decided on it due to all the reviews I read from people who bought it as a replacement for a lost Littman cardio III and liked it just as good. It's about $100 cheaper than the Littman, and you can take off the bell and switch it to a ped diaphragm.

I currently have an MDF 747xp that I bought for CNA class but I am having a hard time hearing faint heartbeats of the elderly. I am starting NS in August so I am just going to get a new one now. I am going to get the Littmann Classic II SE in Raspberry. I am excited! I hope this one will be better than my current MDF ! :idea:

My husband bought me an Ultrascope Adult, it works perfectly! And you can customize the Ultrascopes with whatever head and tubing colors you want.

I got an ultrascope maxiscope and can hear WONDERFULLY! I sent my allheart cardiology back. Still may get a littman too, though

I have decided to buy a littmann stethoscope, but I'm not sure about which one to get (lightweight, classic,cardiology...:confused:). It looks like the cardiology one is the best one, but $130+ is a lot :bugeyes:! I am thinking about getting a classic ($75 - price still stings), but then I feel like I should get the best one available.

The Cardiology III is great if you can afford it. If not, get the Classic. :)

My husband got me a Littman Master Cardiology even though told him to wait. Asked my pharm teacher and it needs to be a two side so he's getting me another one. I love that man. He also had it engraved.

I have the rasberry Littmann too and love it. Works great. I thought I would have an unusual color but of the 19 in my lab class 4 of us had the exact same color. Great minds :) Good luck with school.

A very good friend of mine, a nurse for 15+ years, bought me a Cardiology III in plum with my name engraved on it. It is awesome!

I have a Littmann Lightweight II S.E. in lilac :) I have had surgery on the back of my neck/head so I thought that the lightweight would be a good idea.
