3M's Littmann Cardiology IV was designed for doctors who demand high acoustic performance combined with ultimate versatility.
The distinct chalice-shaped chest piece featured dual-frequency diaphragms on both its sides, offering perfect acoustic performance, diagnostic versatility, and easiness in the handling of patients of various body types and ages. The pediatric side of the chest piece can be easily transformed into a traditional bell by replacing the diaphragm with the elastic membrane that is included with the stethoscope. Both the adult and the pediatric sides of the Cardiology iv stethoscope have solid diaphragms that can be removed, easily cleaned, and easily placed back into position as all of their surfaces are smooth and without cavities that are hard to reach.
Cardiology IV Features
Better audibility of high-frequency sounds¹ helps you learn more about your patient’s condition
The pediatric side converts to an open bell. Just remove the single-piece diaphragm and replace it with a non-chill rim.
Single-piece tunable diaphragms let you hear high and low-frequency sounds on both the adult and pediatric sides of the chest piece.
Open bell stays clear of dirt and debris by covering it with the small diaphragm. Dual-lumen tubing combines two sound paths in one tube, eliminating the rubbing noise of traditional double tubes.
No natural rubber latex or phthalate plasticizers are used in the tubing or any other cardiology iv 's component.
