Littman is offering a free Electronic Stethoscope for 14 days

[Hockey]

Just wanted to pass this on. It is legit. I am waiting to get mine in the mail right now. Talked to the lady and she said basically they are used but completely refurbished to brand new condition.

I've wanted to try an electronic one out for a while just to see what its like so I figure hey its free why not.

Only difference between 3100 and 3200 is the 3200 will record and playback on your computer (but you have to have the software I believe and you have to buy that). I went with 3100 because I figure less parts to break etc.

Sounds like they are doing it as an "on your honor" system on getting em back since no credit card etc

Just filled out the form for the 3200. I will use the 14 days to listen to various heart tones and lung sounds in the ICU as well as fremitus and patellar percussion of an intact bone and a fractured one, and upload them to my computer for teaching purposes.

You ever use one before? Its going to be interesting for sure

 

[Shishkabob]

I'd be too scared someone would swipe it and I'd be left with the bill.

 

[Combat_Medic]

I like to play with it for a bit. Not that I really need one. To bad you got to be in the United States. Guess they don't want to send one all the way to South Korea :sad:.

One of the ICU docs had one (cant remember the brand but it wasnt littman) and let me borrow it once or twice to listen to a patient. That's about it.

That's a very valid point and one of the reasons why I NEVER leave my stethoscope on the rig. I always put it in the big pocket of my EMT pants and let the ear pieces hang out of the pocket.

This does seem pretty nice

I have the Littman 3100 and used the 14-day free trial when I got it. It is a legitimate offer and they will treat you right.

I use the 3100 everyday I am on the truck and it is a very nice piece of equipment. I need it for my congenital hearing loss. Is it for everybody? Not really. If you have normal hearing, it may be over the top for you, but for hearing loss it is a great tool.

The 3100 is the amplified scope that is the predecessor of the 3200.

 

[CodyHolt83]

So how much are they to just buy one outright? I haven't seen it anywhere yet.

That is hilarious

Yeah either that or loose it.

 

[DarkStarr]

signed up, thanks!

 

[CodyHolt83]

Okay, okay...I deserved that!

I was talking about on their website, if you lose it or someone steals it, what is the COMPANY charging? I'm just curious.

 

[EMT-IT753]

The 3100 was $309 with shipping.
The 3200 is around $500 I beleive. I would have to look it up again though.

If I remember right, Littman refers you to their dealers to actually buy them. They have a list of dealers that they recommend.

 

[Simusid]

I signed up for the demo. I wonder if I can wait patiently enough or will I cave and just buy one sight unseen!

I have tinnitus in one ear and I was hoping for something like this to see what I'm really missing.

 

[LuvGlock]

What the heck, I'll try it.

I'd like to know what lungs sound like.

 

[llavero]

Wow!!! Looks great!
