Dude. The stethoscope is important and there are significant differences between single tube and dual tube, bell and diaphragm, so on. But, you must develop a hearing that takes time. If you don't know what to hear, it doesn't matter what you buy.
Terrific overview of the key features and differentiators, and thanks for the ADC Adscope love! We know we're not the most famous brand, but we truly believe the Adscope can hold its own against any other brand on the market today - and we individually acoustic test every Adscope Clinician and Cardiology instrument in our New York headquarters to ensure that level of performance. P.S. In addition to the lifetime warranties and free parts, Adscopes also come with complimentary refurbishment. So if you do use your nice scope in a messy setting, send it back to us and our professional service team will clean it top to bottom and send it right back.

Too bad you guys don’t ship internationally at the buyers cost. Missing on your chance for greater appreciation. World is much bigger than the USA. 😢
Great video 👍. Am an MD practicing in South America where ADCs are popular. Mine is an Adscope Cardiology 602, fine acoustics.

Totally agree!
Thank you for putting this video up! For me the stethoscope is one of those pieces of equipment it is a little intimidating (if I’m honest) and I don’t see much of a need for at my level. However, it is another tool I can use and your video breaks it down very. Thank you! You are saving lives.

Glad you found this helpful. Yes, it can be intimidating but being able to take an accurate blood pressure at home should be a normalized. People already use the automatic machines but then have false alarms when it gets out of calibration and gives inaccurate readings. Listing to lung sounds is also helpful but does take a bit of practice to get comfortable with.
Great information!
They aren't cheap but especially for home use i like the litman core it lets you amplify the sounds through as well as record what you were hearing and see a representation on your phone. you could potentially email it to a doctor to see if they notice a problem. The Duo lets you get a single lead EKG at the same time, the advantage/disadvantage of the duo is that the sounds aren't really traveling through the tube and in fact you can use blue tooth earbuds through the app so you don't need to worry about it hitting stuff in an ambulance but technically you're listening to a digital representation of the sound though i can't tell a difference. Both also have noise canceling that works really well which could be very helpful in an emergency where there is a lot of other stuff going on. They cost around 300 but almost always have some kind of sale going on, and you can use an FSA to pay for it. Definitely go through the EKO or litman sites though they are much cheaper than the FSA store and even cheaper than amazon.

Yes, the digital ones are nice. And they are great for instructors so we can save lung sounds for training.
Get one with good tubes, cheap ones will transfer the sound of tubes rubbing extremely loud, you won't hear anything else
Terrific information! How might a non-professional learn/understand what to listen for?

Glad you found it helpful! Check out the video we did on taking blood pressures here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZGGNutuRn7bXf9o.html We will be releasing a video on breath sounds in the future to walk people through that as well, but do some KZread searches for listening to breath sounds in the meantime. There is a lot of information out there.
