What is the best way to identify amplified stethoscope solutions for your hearing instrument wearing patients? Invest in a 3M Littmann CORE Amplified Stethoscope and have it ready to demo in your office. Why? Most medical professionals want to stream auscultation directly to their hearing instruments. Since the 3M Littmann CORE has built-in Bluetooth capabilities, having it on hand will:
- determine if streaming auscultation can be achieved with the patient’s current Bluetooth-enabled hearing instrument technology;
- help establish realistic expectations;
- facilitate buy-in of necessary configurations (e.g., headphones, different amplified stethoscope) by allowing the patient to experience successfully hearing auscultation without needing to remove hearing instruments.
