Cardionics E-Scope II Headphone Model

The Cardionics E-Scope® II Headphone Model features a convenient headphone set that fits over the ears and plugs into the control module which clips smartly onto the users belt or waistband (similar to a cell phone clip). It is intended for general clinical use, medical education, Telemedicine and paramedic use in ambulances and medical helicopters. It amplifies the heart, breath, bowel or korotkoff sounds without amplifying outside noise. The E-Scope® II has maximum amplitude or sound pressure level output of 120 dBa without distortion. Additionally, heart or lung sounds are amplified without appreciable amplification of room or background noise. This makes it much easier to hear a low, rumbling murmur or faint AI blows.

The new E-Scope® II Headphone Model is available with the optional Hand held PDA( Compac- IPAQ) interface to output a visual phonocardiogram. This can be played back and e-mailed to a colleague; a must for teaching. The E-Scope® II features a frequency switch for heart sounds (20-1000 Hz) and breath sounds (70-2000 Hz), a variable volume control (27dB @ 200 HZ peak output for both heart and lung sounds; Maximum output is 124 dB SPL), and has a 2.0 minute auto "off" feature.
