Acoustics:
These superior stethoscopes are specially designed for pediatric and infant auscultation. They provide the same high-quality acoustics of the adult Classic II stethoscope. Both stethoscopes feature 3M's patented floating diaphragm. It assures you of high acoustic sensitivity and consistent frequency responses without diaphragm stress from a too-tightly threaded rim. The solid stainless steel chestpieces feature a two-sided traditional design and are optimally sized for your little patients. The small sized diaphragms conform to the contours of pediatric and infant bodies. The pediatric stethoscope features a 1-inch bell and the infant stethoscope has a 3/4-inch bell for an easier chestwall seal.
Comfort:
These precision instruments are also designed to maximize the comfort of both patient and professional. They feature a non-chill rim on both the diaphragm and bell, so there's no need to warm them up. Plus, each stethoscope comes with Littmann "Soft-sealing" eartips designed to assure an excellent acoustical seal in the ear canal and maximum comfort.
Durability:
As with all Littmann Classic II stethoscopes, the pediatric and infant models are designed for long-lasting durability. The snap-on rim is constructed of tough elastomer polyurethane. It won't rust or corrode. And unlike threaded rims, it won't come loose or fall off. There's also a crack-resistant, reinforced yoke that allows you to fold the stethoscope easily into your pocket without kinking or breaking. The internal double-leaf binaural spring helps assure a long life and allows easy adjustment of eartube tension. The lightweight eartubes are durable and abrasion-resistant.
Warranty:
The Pediatric and Infant stethoscopes are backed by a three year warranty.
