Description

Love your stethoscope The compact and sensitive Littmann Classic III stethoscope is the perfect instrument for clinicians who monitor and assess children or adults in non-critical environments. Manufactured with strong yet lightweight materials for hours of comfortable use. The 3M™ Littmann® Classic III™ Stethoscope is the latest version of the stethoscope that helps millions of medical professionals achieve their best. The Classic III stethoscope offers high acoustic sensitivity for exceptional performance, plus a versatile two-sided chestpiece with tunable diaphragms. The Classic III stethoscope is used by students and medical professionals alike to identify, listen to, and study heart, lung, and other body sounds for physical assessment, patient monitoring, and diagnosis.Tunable diaphragm technology—a 3M invention—lets clinicians hear different frequency sounds by simply adjusting the pressure on the chestpiece. Hold the chestpiece with light pressure to hear low frequency sounds; press a little more to hear higher frequency sounds. This time-saving feature allows the healthcare provider to focus on the patient, while the non- chill diaphragm provides patient comfort.Headset tension is easily adjusted for head size and comfort by squeezing together or pulling apart the eartubes. Snap-tight, soft-sealing eartips conform to individual ears for an excellent acoustic seal and comfortable fit. Eartips snap firmly onto the ends of the eartubes and, for safety, require a significant effort to remove.Resilient next-generation tubing retains its shape and flexibility even after folding tightly into a pocket. It provides longer stethoscope life due to improved resistance to skin oils and alcohol, and is less likely to pick up stains. Next-generation tubing is not made with natural rubber latex, a benefit to sensitive medical professionals and their patients. And, to play its part in the protection of human health and the environment, the next-generation tubing does not contain phthalate plasticizers.The Classic III stethoscope is made in the USA for consistent quality. It comes complete with large and small soft- sealing eartips, non-chill bell sleeve, and instructions.Put the power of improved listening in your pocket with the Littmann Learning App. This powerful app is designed to help users better recognize benign and pathological heart sounds, murmurs, and lung sounds. It reinforces learning by offering self-directed learning modules directly on your phone. You can download the free Littmann Learning App now from the App Store® or Google Play Store®. Expanded content is available with a subscription.

  • Great quality and super cute color!
Color: Pearl Pink Tube Style: Stainless-Finish Chestpiece
This stethoscope is both functional and stylish! The sound quality is clear and reliable for daily use. I love the pink color—it adds a personal and fun touch to my medical gear. Lightweight and comfortable to wear. Highly recommended for students or professionals!

  • 3M Pink Littmann Classic II Stethoscope, Works Amazing!
Color: Pearl Pink Tube Style: Stainless-Finish Chestpiece
3M Littmann Classic II Stethescope. A very lovely shade of pink. Crystal Clear. Sound Quality is much improved over my old one. The hose is very flexible in all the best ways. No need to untwist it to finish the task at hand. Ear pieces are not hard plastic, but a medium-firm rubber. A lot more comfortable than the hard plastic standard tips. High Quality stethescope contributes to my accuracy. That is a valuable tool to have around. ... show more

  • Reliable and excellent quality stethoscope
Color: Black Tube Style: Stainless-Finish Chestpiece
The 3M Littmann Classic III is, without a doubt, one of the best investments I have made in my medical team. From the first use, you can see the difference in the clarity of the sound: I can listen to heart, respiratory and breath sounds with impressive clarity. The double-sided diaphragm is very practical, since it allows it to be used in both adults and pediatric patients, and the change between both sides is quick and easy. ... show more

  • Excellent Quality – Perfect for Home Blood Pressure Monitoring
Color: Grey Tube Style: Stainless-Finish Chestpiece
I bought the 3M Littmann Classic III stethoscope to help monitor my high blood pressure at home, and it has completely exceeded my expectations. Even though I’m not a medical professional, this stethoscope is easy to use and makes it much easier to hear my heartbeat clearly when checking my BP with a manual cuff. The sound quality is incredibly clear and noticeably louder than cheaper models I’ve tried. I can easily hear both the first and last beats (systolic and diastolic), which gives me more confidence in my readings. The soft eartips are super comfortable, and the 27" length gives me plenty of room to work without feeling cramped. It’s also lightweight and well-made — you can tell it's designed to last. I appreciate that the chestpiece doesn’t get cold, which makes it more comfortable to use on my chest or wrist. If you’re managing high blood pressure at home and want something dependable and accurate, I highly recommend this stethoscope. It gives me peace of mind and a sense of control over my health. ... show more

  • Perfection
Color: Pearl Pink Tube Style: Stainless-Finish Chestpiece
I can’t say enough good things about this stethoscope. I wanted to get a new stethoscope for school as ours are not that good. This stethoscope is decently priced for the quality it has. It is very adjustable and comes with multiple earpieces to fit your ears. If you’re looking for a good stuff scope to get you through Nursing school I’d recommend this one. ... show more

  • Great stethoscope
Color: Turquoise Tube Style: Stainless-Finish Chestpiece
This is my favorite stethoscope. I did receive a completely different color than I ordered. The box was correct but the product was not. It was a gift and she liked the color that was sent so we let it be.
