Review on Get Accurate Pediatric Diagnoses With ADC 618SF Adscope Adimals 618 Stethoscope, Seafoam by Tyrell Christmas

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Cute, but not actually a great stethoscope

I needed pediatric stethoscopes to donate on a medical mission so I bought 20 of these. The nurses that I am giving them to are at a pediatric hospital and see very tiny babies, so I thought these would be good. The stethoscopes are cute and the interchangeable animal faces are perfect for pediatrics, but they aren't great for actually hearing lung and heart sounds - the sound is muffled quite a bit and I hear a lot of ambient noise. So I wish they were better quality. I use a Littman Cardiology stethoscope in my practice and the quality is so much better (of course, the price is a lot higher, too). I guess you get what you pay for in this case.

Pros
  • Offers a superior quality sound for precise auscultation
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in low-income families
