The 3M Littmann Lightweight II S.E. Stethoscope is a high-quality, entry-level instrument ideal for medical professionals such as LPNs, licensed vocational nurses, certified nursing assistants, and nursing students. It features a tunable diaphragm, dual-sided chestpiece, and adjustable headset. The stethoscope is designed with a teardrop shape for easier positioning under blood pressure cuffs and around bandages.
This stethoscope offers a surprising number of beyond-the-basics features such as a tunable diaphragm, dual-sided chestpiece, and adjustable headset. It is the lightest of all Littmann adult stethoscopes, weighing just 118 grams, making it more comfortable for caregivers who wear their stethoscopes all day long.
The tunable diaphragm technology lets clinicians hear different frequency sounds by simply adjusting the pressure on the chestpiece. The non-chill diaphragm and rim provide patient comfort. The resilient tubing retains its shape and flexibility even after folding tightly into a pocket. The headset tension is easily adjusted for head size and comfort by squeezing together or pulling apart the eartubes.
The stethoscope is not made with natural rubber latex, a benefit to sensitive medical professionals and their patients. The next-generation tubing does not contain phthalate plasticizers, playing its part in the protection of human health and the environment. The stethoscope is made in the USA for consistent quality. It comes complete with large soft-sealing eartips and instructions.
