More Information

• Sound Quality:
  - The E-Scope delivers unparalleled sound quality for heart, breath, bowel and Korotkoff sounds

• Sounds Output:
  - The sounds output allows the user to connect to a PDA for recording, (See pocket monitor)

• Automatic shut-off:
  - If the user forgets to turn off the E-Scope, it will automatically shut down after two minutes. It can be re-started with the touch of a button. This conserves the battery. Upon restart, the E-Scope returns to its previous volume setting

• 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

• Selection of bells, diaphragms:
  - The E-Scope is the only electronic stethoscope on the market that allows the user to change from a diaphragm to a bell. A selection of diaphragms and bells is supplied with every E-Scope

• Extra ear tips:
  - The E-Scope is supplied with two additional types of ear tips so the user can select the most comfortable according to individual taste

• Off-the-Shelf Battery:
  - The E-Scope operates on a standard, off-the-shelf AAA battery. It will power the E-Scope for approximately 4-5 months of regular use

• Pocket moniter:
  - The E-Scope can be connected to a PDA (personal digital assistant) to display, record and playback heart sounds (as a phonocardiogram) and breath sounds (as a phonopneumogram). See Pocket moniter software for more information
  

• General clinical use:
  - The E-Scope can be used for routine patient examination. This can be especially useful when coupled with the Pocket Monitor (PDA Software)

• Hearing Impaired use:
  - The E-Scope Belt model with external E-Scope headphones can be used for ITE(in-the-ear) type hearing aids. For BTE (behind-the-ear), we provide a direct audio input to the audio shoe of the hearing aid. For cochlear implants, we can provide a direct coupling to the speech processor

• Teaching:
  - The E-Scope can be used for teaching as well as clinical use. The sounds output will allow two listeners to hear the patient simultaneously. When used in this manner, the second listener wears a stethophone (Cardionics cat. no. 718-0401) that is inserted into the Sounds Output of the E-Scope

• Telemedicine:
  - Use the E-Scope with the Sigma Telemed System to transmit sounds live over the Internet. Or use the E-Scope with the Telecoder Audio Encoder/Decoder to transmit sounds across a broad array of line types, including ISDN, DSL, Cable, etc
