The E-Scope clinic model utilises modern electronic circuitry to amplify heart, breath and Korotkoff sounds so they become much easier to hear. The sound is pure and clean. Compared to acoustic stethoscopes, murmurs and faint blows are much more distinguishable. 

The E-Scope Clinic Model is suitable for use in general clinical medicine by medical professionals,  paramedics for ambulance use, isolation wards and Hazmat areas and cervical auscultation (speech pathology). It is primarily aimed at clinicians for general medical use and also those who have mild hearing loss. 

Key features

• Sounds- approximately 30 times louder than a acoustic stethoscope.
• Long battery life approximately 4.5 months 30 uses a day 5 days week using one AAA battery.
• Built in binurals just like an acoustic stethoscope
• All Escopes are supplied with a carry case an adult specialist stainless steel diaphragm, plastic pediatric diaphragm, plastic adult bell, plastic paediatric bell and plastic infant bell.
• The E-Scope allows the user to change from a diaphragm to a bell. A selection of diaphragms and bells is supplied with every E-Scope.
• Easy to use- all controls are on the head of the stethoscope and include volume up/down heart or breath sound switch. 
• Frequency control. A frequency switch for heart sounds (45-900 Hz) and breath sounds (50-2000 Hz) allows the listener to concentrate on a particular sound within a specific frequency range.
• The maximum volume of the E-Scope II is approximately 30x louder than an  acoustic stethoscope
• Weight: 197g (inc battery)
• Cord Length: 96 centimeters from chest piece to binaural earpieces
• Restart: 1.5 to 2 minute timer
• Battery: One AAA battery can power the E-Scope II for approximately 4.5  months assuming it is used 30 times a day for 5 days per week.
• Warranty: One year Warranty.  Lifetime technical support.

Important note for BTE users. Not all hearing aids will allow the low frequencies of heart and breath sounds to be heard. Heart sounds frequencies range from 20-650Hz and lung sounds from 70-2000Hz. The first and second heart sounds have a frequency of approximately 70-100Hz. 

Murmurs range from approximately 150-400Hz. Your hearing aid MUST be able to not only hear frequencies in the 100Hz area, but be able to reproduce them. You should discuss this with your audiologist prior to purchasing a hearing aid.

We maintain a list of hearing aids that have low frequency characteristics. Please contact us if you want to check the suitability of your hearing aid.

E-scope Belt Model Optional Direct Audio Input (DAI) Cable. 

Use the Escope belt model together with a  cable for one ear or two ears which is connected from the E-Scope to the audio shoe of your hearing aid (not supplied). Your audiologist will have to supply the audio shoe.  The audio shoe snaps onto the hearing aid. The DAI cable is inserted into the audio shoe and is connected to the  “Sounds output” of the E-Scope.

E-scope Belt Model Optional Silhouette (Induction Coil), Single Or Double For BTE Hearing Aids.

Use the Escope Belt model with a silhouette (induction coil) which can be connected to the E-Scope for one or both ears.  The silhouette has worked well in many situations with BTE hearing aids. The Silhouette is generally more powerful than a direct audio input. This is a small, flat plastic device that loops behind the ear between the BTE and the head and is worn only when using the stethoscope.  Turn the BTE to the “Telecoil” position when using the silhouette cord (induction coil).

E-scope Belt Model Optional  Large Over The Ear Headphones     

 We can supply a set of large headphones that cover the entire ear and the BTE hearing aid.  These have worked well in many cases and fold up for ease of carrying.

E-scope EMS Model

This E-scope model is designed for use in noisy environments and is well suited for EMS and Ambulance use. The aviation headphones cover the ear completely and block out as much noise as possible.  Soft breath sounds can be heard in a loud ambulance.  The stethoscope cable is detachable from the headphones. 

All the controls for volume breath sound and heart sound filters are on the head of the stethoscope as well as on the aviation-style headphones making it easy for the user to adjust the volume or filter.

The SimulScope is an instrument for teaching auscultation at the bedside or in the classroom.  It is wireless so that students are not tied to the instructor when in the patient’s room and sets up in seconds. 

The SimulScope system consists of a small, portable, battery-operated (or mains operated) infrared transmitter with low frequency stethoscope that is taken to the bedside. Each student and the instructor wear a HeartMan Infrared Headphone.

The Simulscope allows everyone to hear the same patient simultaneously. Crucially the instructor knows exactly what the student is hearing in real time. The SimulScope has a series of discrete filters that allow the accentuation or attenuation of eight different frequency bands. This permits the instructor to accentuate a grade 1 murmur, a faint AI blow or any other sound.  He/she can attenuate or accentuate other sounds or murmurs for purposes of teaching.  Sounds can be recorded at the bedside and played back through the SimulScope in the classroom, if desired.

It is much easier on the patient as there is only one stethoscope placed on him or her.  Because the instructor can teach all students simultaneously, a great deal of time is saved while on rounds.

With the Wireless HeartMan PC Receiver, sounds are sent simultaneously to a PC. The Wireless HeartMan PC Receiver is connected to the "microphone in" on the PC and receives the sound and displays it on the computer screen as a phonocardiogram enhancing the learning process.

The phonocardiogram is produced by the StethView Digital Recording System software.

Three versions of the SAM student Auscultation manikin are available. You can listen to SAM with your own stethoscope or for group learning with the Simulscope or Classroom Infrared Emitter. Depending on the model different heart, lung and breath sounds are available and they are presented at the correct anatomical locations. Two of the models also have a carotid pulse timed with the onset of Systole.
