I have Littmann stethoscope with chest piece that have adult and paediatric diaphragms. The way you can know which diaphragm is open - there is a dot, whichever diaphragm is facing the dot that one is open.
great video of of how to properly use a stethoscope I look stupid in school at first until I learn this lol so simple now I'm still learning more everyday great video
AllHallowsEve123 I'm not sure how i can make a video on the landmarks, since i don't have a model who is willing to volunteer lol, but here is a link that explains the landmarks that can help you, and apical pulse is taken is on the Apex of all the landmarks. Some people count the pulse for 15 seconds and multiply by 4, but usually that isn't very accurate due to changes in the speed among other things. atitesting.com/ati_next_gen/skillsmodules/content/physical-assessment-adult/equipment/cardiac.html. let me know if this helped Here is a place that you can go to, to help you listen to some heart sounds and lungs sounds solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_EU/3M-Littmann-EMEA/stethoscope/littmann-learning-institute/heart-lung-sounds/heart-lung-sound-library/ i hope this helps

Hey! Thanks for your video. I am a first year DO student, and I have never used a stethoscope before. I never did EMT,paramedic things,etc. Today I had lab and our stethoscopes weren't at the bookstore yet, so it was really frustrating. I will get more practice throughout the course though. I know you said for B.P. the bell is closed, but what about listening to the heart?
So I sell Origami Owl living lockets. I have a Stick It Locket that I have customers (nurses) asking if it'd be sanitary to place this on their stethoscope.. It's 30mm round has Swarovski crystals and can be personalized with charms inside the locket. What do you think?
my stethoscope headset does not fit in my ear canal .. when I put it on it always turns to the side or doesn't go in all the way causing me to not hear anything what do I do ?
Hello, I am a medic, after I used my Littmann classic II. S.E., I cleaned this with a glasses cloth which is contain 5% alcohol. After cleaning the Y tube became sticky :/ Is it normal?
Opened and closed bell was super helpful but that was a lot of explanation on how to insert them in your ears. If someone can't get their head around that... Perhaps they're not cut out for a profession that requires a stethoscope.
Hey I bought a littman classic two se stethoscope and I noticed I have some difficulty switching from the bell and diaphragm,i noticed yours seems easy coz it is right and left while mine is unpredictable until I hear the clicking sound.
+thilanka gunarathna The Classic II would be a good one because it's not too heavy, but you would probably benefit more from a cardiac one that is double sided with a pediatric side and a side like this classic II they are about $120 ish, they are slightly heavier but they are really good quality
This was so helpful i thought my littman was broken.
like me when i bought it
That’s me right now. I can’t listen to no heart beat, pulse or anything!! I’ll watch this video and update y’all!
As a nurse of nearly 30 years you have a lovely, informative demonstration!! Good job!
I din’t know that the bell can be closed and opened. I thought mine was broken cause I can’t hear anything before. THANK YOU
Felicia Thevan lmfao did you read anything before using it?
Thanks for the close and open info I thought mine was broken 😂

Thank you for this! I thought mine was broken but your instructions helped me realize it was not 😁😁😁
Thank you for the video. Thanx to you I figured out why I could not hear thru my stethoscope. Much thanx again!
I watched a few videos and your video was very clear on how to properly wear and use the stethoscope. Thanks very informative.
Thanks for the open and close method , I actually felt mine was broken
great video of of how to properly use a stethoscope I look stupid in school at first until I learn this lol so simple now I'm still learning more everyday great video
This was incredibly helpful! I thought my Littman was broken too!! Thank you!
Could you do a video on listening to heart landmarks I.e. Aortic, tricuspid, mitral, Erbs, apical. Taking apical pulse. Murmurs/S3, S4?
Do you mean the five precordial landmarks?
Ellie Rogers yes please
Yes I do. Sorry about that!

we use the big bell for that :) except for babies or smaller people in general - for those we use the small bell
My stethoscope's bell to diaphragm turning lock is jammed Any solution??
on hot days my stethoscope tube gets a little soft and sticky, is this normal?
Thx for the info.. i just started nursing school and I thought my stethoscope was broken or something..
Lifesaver! I thought I paid for a fake one accidentally! But no, I was just uneducated
Really good tips

thank you very much, video was very helpful
my stethoscope headset does not fit in my ear canal .. when I put it on it always turns to the side or doesn't go in all the way causing me to not hear anything what do I do ?
put the smaller size ear pieces on.
do you know how to change the earpiece rubber? it hurts me a lot whenever i use my littmann 😂
Black kittens pull hard and twist both ways.
is there anyway you can show a video on changing tubing?
Jessica Bennett you cant reuse the tubing. to remove it you can pull hard or cut it.
Bob kachmarzinski She asked how to change it. Not how to reuse it.

Ádám Szegedi The formula for the binaurals is always changing. For some years yes.
