I bought this and believe me when I say it is definitely the best stethoscope I’ve ever used as far as durability and sound quality. I’ve used it on several patients and it is definitely a very useful tool but I’ve also noticed a few down sides to it. The main one being that it’s not the most convenient tool in every aspect of health care. I work in EMS sometimes immediate interventions need to be done and this is not the most practical tool for that. I couldn’t take a manual blood pressure with it when I needed to and sometimes I was in a situation where I need to immediately listen to lung sounds for example but couldn’t because I had to wait for a few seconds for it to turn back on and then I could listen. The ekg feature is cool and can be useful but in EMS depending on the complaint I’m typically gonna put the patient on the cardiac monitor anyway so it was kind of pointless to have it and plus it takes forever to analyze and is extremely touchy when trying to take an ekg and would get poor signal readings often. Like I said this is by far the best stethoscope I’ve ever used just not the most practical in EMS. It’s great in a more clinical environment like a doctors office, probably where its best suited honestly. Just not in my field. The core is the best one for my field and I’m going to go back to using it.

My companion bought me this stethoscope for Christmas. I am an RN and see many patients in the home setting with cardiac disease. This stethoscope has allowed me to educate my cardiac patients on this disease. I am very pleased with the quality this tool brings to my profession.

I discovered the EKO previously with the Littman digital stethoscope, and as great as it was it needed some upgrades that the 500 has. The LCD screen and ability to change filters directly in the device itself is game changer. The 3 lead EKG is outstanding and a fib indicator is an on point indicator that saves life. Due to my hearing impairment the Hearing amplification on previous models was good but the 500 solves this problem completely, as a teacher on rounds I can record and show my students perfectly without troubling my patients to have 4 doctors inspect separately ultimately a great device

3M really has a good product. They have a great package and material engineering plan. Everything about it deserves superlatives, including its choice of shipper; The Worst. A $400 piece of medical equipment is shipped by the lowest bidder? Do better, and when you redesign it, give a battery user serviceable battery, so the entire unit won’t need to be replaced, when the battery won’t hold a charge anymore.
