3M Littmann Classic III Monitoring Stethoscope for More Than 2X as Loud* and Lighter** Use

The 3M™ Littmann® Classic III™ Stethoscope is the latest version of the stethoscope that helps millions of medical professionals achieve their best. Manufactured with strong yet lightweight materials for hours of comfortable use, the compact and sensitive Littmann Classic III stethoscope is the perfect instrument for clinicians who monitor and assess children or adults in non-critical environments.

Tunable diaphragm technology—a 3M invention—lets clinicians hear different frequency sounds by simply adjusting the pressure on the chestpiece. This time-saving feature allows the healthcare provider to focus on the patient, while the non-chill diaphragm provides patient comfort. The Classic III stethoscope offers high acoustic sensitivity for exceptional performance, plus a versatile two-sided chestpiece with tunable diaphragms. It is used by students and medical professionals alike to identify, listen to, and study heart, lung, and other body sounds for physical assessment, patient monitoring, and diagnosis.

Headset tension is easily adjusted for head size and comfort by squeezing together or pulling apart the eartubes. Snap-tight, soft-sealing eartips conform to individual ears for an excellent acoustic seal and comfortable fit. Eartips snap firmly onto the ends of the eartubes and, for safety, require a significant effort to remove. Resilient next-generation tubing retains its shape and flexibility even after folding tightly into a pocket, providing longer stethoscope life due to improved resistance to skin oils and alcohol, and is less likely to pick up stains.

The Classic III stethoscope is made in the USA for consistent quality and comes complete with large and small soft-sealing eartips, non-chill bell sleeve, and instructions. It is designed for use with adult and pediatric patients, and features a tunable, dual-sided stainless steel chestpiece with open or closed bell and non-chill bell sleeve for greater patient comfort.

The Littmann Learning App is a powerful tool that helps users better recognize benign and pathological heart sounds, murmurs, and lung sounds, reinforcing learning through self-directed learning modules. Users can download the free app from the App Store® or Google Play Store®, with expanded content available through a subscription.

The Littmann Classic III stethoscope is more than twice as loud as the next leading stethoscope, and allows for more reliable and consistent detection of heart sounds at lower frequencies (below 120Hz) when compared to other leading stethoscopes. It also weighs less than other stethoscopes in its class, and offers a fun and vibrant design to match the user's personality.
