-
This is the top of a box for a stethoscope. It covers and protects the contents of the box. - Technical
-
The Littmann stethoscope was first developed by Dr. David Littmann in 1961, this instrument rapidly became popular: it's simple design remains the basis for most stethoscopes used in medical practice today [2016]. It's open chest piece allows the user to better hear low-pitched sounds; firm tubing has a single lumen bore; it is constructed of the shortest practical overall length; has a spring with precise tension to hold the ear tubes apart; and is lightweight and convenient to carry and use. It was made in two models: the doctor's stethoscope and the nurse's stethoscope. (From Acquisitions Worksheet, see Ref. 1) - Area Notes
