Thank you for sharing! I was having trouble deciding which one I should go with, I appreciate the video!!

As an anesthesiology resident I strongly suggest to stick with the classic 3 and use the extra money to buy something nice for yourself

I’m a current medical assisting student and I currently use a series 2 stethoscope. I have a difficult time hearing the sounds of the heart beat when doing blood pressure. I do hear it but it is very faint. Thanks to your video, I’m investing into the series 4. Can’t wait to get it and hear the difference

This review was so helpful. I've used a cheaper stethoscope to get me to my final semester, and I start as an extern 3 for my final semester in cardiac medical, where I was also offered a position for after graduation. Going to bite the bullet and go for the IV.

Thanks for this! I am starting my Accelerated Bsn this fall and my husband surprised me with the Littman cardiology IV. I thought it was maybe too advanced and was considering returning for the cardiology III. However, after this video I am going to keep and be thankful he splurged 😊

Thanks for the vid! Not a nurse, but a paramedic. The "challenging" part, for me, is attending in a moving ambulance; or when outside on scene at an MVI. The 3 is great but the 4 allows me to hear just a bit more over the sirens, radio chatter, engine noise, things rattling around etc etc. BP in those situations is not fun lol. I didn't have my own 3, just one I found in the station so technically my first steth is the 4. Glad I just ate the cost and splurged a bit!

I've seen med surg nurses with the electric stethoscopes that ARNPs and docs use so hey, you chose what you want right? I'm personally gonna get the cardiology 4 because of all the alarms from vents and monitors in ICU. Thank you for sharing your opinion/experiences :)

Well I'm a veterinarian student and it's super hard to hear the heart of a animal when it's agitated or when the owner it's talking to you, so i hope the cardiology lV gets the job done to provide the best service to our beautiful pets 😍💓

"Cardiology" models are more sensitive. Currently, two top USA quality scopes are Littmann Cardiology IV and the ADC Adscopes Cardiology 601, 602 & 606. Both brands have fantastic acoustics.

Why is important to convert the pediatric side into an open bell??? What's the difference??? Thanks.

Thank Y for help ❤

Happy New Year 2021.

Thank you very much for the video. I want to give one of those stethoscopes to my brother who is a pediatrician, which one would you recommend?. Thanks!!

Hi, I was wondering if you ended up getting it?! I am also an MA & im debating if I should get it as well or just get the classic three instead?

From an German nurse perspective where we aren't even allowed to take blood or take care of wounds, all doctors job. For what do you need an cardiology stethoscope or an stethoscope in general?

An ICU would be an ideal place where you might want to detect a change in patient's breathing status. I do find the classic 2 to be sufficient in most cases

I once detected a patient had a serious heart murmur and reported to the doctor. Also a patient can develop crackles from a fluid overload etc.

I love my Cardiology IV. It’s an investment because it’s more pricey, but it zones in on the sounds your suppose to be listening to (heart - lub dub- and lung- clear, crackles, coarse, etc) vs all the external noise. If you can’t afford the Cardiology though, I work with plenty of nurses that still use the Classic. ☺️

Any stethoscope can be used to listen to heart and lung sounds on anyone. It will help to know where to place it so you know whether your hearing heart or lung sounds, etc. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the question! I don’t think for nursing school the cardiology is 100% necessary. A Classic will do fine. It’s really when you get out on your own that it’s beneficial to have a solid stethoscope. That being said, if you only want to purchase one stethoscope, I’d recommend the Cardiology. 😊

I have both...and tbh other than the less rubbing sounds... They both sounds more or less the same when auscultating.. Don't waste your money on a cardiology IV.. Its not worth the extra money...

I doubt they have less rubbing than a single lumen tube. Possibly less rubbing than the original "dual" tubed sprague (which also work fine).

Agreed. Don’t waste your money one a Cardiology IV. Buy an Eko Core if you want to increase your ability to hear things. It attaches to any stethoscope. Although, some would say if you can’t hear it with a Classic III, then it’s clinically insignificant and won’t make a difference in your treatment modality.

Good video. One suggestion, ditch the background music. It doesn't add anything, just makes it more difficult to hear you speak.

Challenging =paramedics in the back of the unit 🤦‍♂️

hi, nice demo. I don't want to be harsh , but you were occupying the 95 % of vh( view height of the monitor).
