Classic iii stethoscope brings new features in the design and technology used in Littmann stethoscopes, with double-sided chestpiece, double diaphragm, and improved tubing, while it retains the best characteristics of the traditional models. The acoustic sensitivity has been further increased with a complete redesign of the tubing that are now capable of transporting sound with higher efficiency. Classic iii Features Tunable diaphragms on both the adult and pediatric sides of the chestpiece. The pediatric side is useful for small or thin patients, around bandages, and for carotid assessment. Pediatric side converts to an open bell. Just remove the single-piece diaphragm and replace it with a non-chill rim. Open bell stays clear of dirt and debris by covering it with the small diaphragm. Next-generation tubing with improved resistance to skin oils and alcohol; less likely to pick up stains. Single-piece diaphragm is easy to attach and easy to clean because the surface is smooth without crevices. No natural rubber latex or phthalate plasticizers are used in the tubing or any other component.
