FriCARE Dual Head Stethoscope - Stethoscopes for Nurses, Medical Nursing Students, Paramedics/EMT/LVN/VNA Backup Estetoscopio, Navy Blue Tube, Stainless Steel Chestpiece

Good quality for the price. Sound quality is very good

I think your stethoscope resembles the more expensive brands and including extra ear tips, a name tag and chest piece made your product stand out to me. The thick tubing is good b/c it’ll help prevent ambient noises and helps hinder wear and tear. Yes, the tubing is thick but that doesn’t affect the flexibility at all. The 28” inch length in the description caught my eye, but I didn’t think it was a game changer. Both the diaphragm and bell heads are easy to clean between patient use. The useful turntable dial ensures the scope is set for the correct head. I should add, I read many negative reviews stating that they couldn’t hear anything and that it didn’t work. Many claimed to had prior experience using stethoscopes, makes me wonder, they should remember: “if you can't hear, turn your gear.” I think this item does what it says on the tin. It’s cost effective but with style. It’s useful in the office b/c not everyone does cardio or pediatric work, besides, at this price you can have a backup and a spare in your locker. It would be useful at home b/c you never know when hearing aids could go missing 😊 or you might literally want to hear a loved one’s last breath. I think this would be an excellent backup for the office too.

I think it is a good product, good value for the price. However, you have to use it correctly or you may think it doesn't work. I saw some reviews saying it didn't work, but I suspect they were not using it correctly. I also heard nothing when I first tried it, but then realized that the ear pieces are angled for a reason, to channel the sound into your ear canals. If you put it on reverse (wrong angle) then sound does not get directed in to your ears. The other thing is, that the amount of pressure you apply on the sound sensor end is important. Placed on center of heart and pressed in, I could hear nothing, but when I used less pressure against my skin, just lightly touching, it worked, and it was sort of a fine line about the optimal pressure. The instruction booklet shows 4 locations to measure around your heart, and I found that those 4 locations work a lot better than just centering the sensor where I thought would be the center of my heart. In the correct 4 locations, the sound was stronger and the pressure applied to the sensor and skin contact was less critical. I don't know how it compares to a more expensive product since I have not had a chance to try another variety. With no medical training, don't know if what I am hearing is good or not, but it compares well with the sounds I found on an internet site for what a heart should sound like. Also note that I am a senior citizen, so my hearing is probably not as good as a typical younger person. Noting that, I never could hear anything down in the crook of my arm at the elbow. I have no idea what you should hear there, but I never heard anything that way, and I don't have a lot of body fat to obscure the sound, so it is probably a lack of technique, or older ears for that measurement. Overall, I would recommend this product as adequate for a home user who is curious to hear their heart sounds. I will leave it to the professionals to compare with more expensive products.

Works and fast delivery

Very nice quality and has a little weight to it. Great gift for a nurse or med student

Definitely worth the price. This stethoscope is of good quality and is a nice addition to any nurse or student nurse’s equipment bag. It is definitely durable and ear piece are comfortable and allows me to ease of comfort when using it in the clinical setting.

If you know what you are doing, and can get the head of the stethoscope to line up just right, it works. However, it tends to turn making hearing impossible. I guess you get what you pay for. I would not recommend this for anyone who is not already proficient in taking a blood pressure or performing an exam.

They work really well. I have a hard time hearing from a stethoscope and could hear just fine with this one. It also feels very durable.

Excelente producto, usualmente uso mi litman y de hace tiempo quería este diseño blanco y oro rosa, que está marca no maneja y solo pocas marcas la manejan. Lo adquirí hace ya varios días Soy médico así que lo uso frecuentemente para mis pacientes con insuficiencia renal, para audición de alteraciones cardiacas y pulmonares como ramo de la Nefrologia, la campaña pequeña me sirve excelente para la audición de fístulas arteriovenosas. Al maletín se agrega una lámpara, no viene con pilas. Su accesorios viene con un foco extra, gomitas de cambio para los oídos y para la campaña principal. . El producto cumplió mis expectativas llego antes el vendedor resolvió mis dudas antes del envío. Tal cual en la descripción es el producto en físico, su diseño, lo comparo con mi litman Clásico III y son equiparables en calidad audición, peso.
