How many times have you wanted someone to listen at the same time?

 

The Mom who wants to hear her child's asthma.

 

Your patient who needed to hear his lungs to persuade him to cut down on the smoking.

 

Your surgery patient who wanted to hear what the leaky valve sounds like.

 

Or the one who needed an endarterectomy and hearing the carotid bruit would have made your explanation easier.

 

The student you were teaching and you wanted to show exact timing of that third heart sound as it occurred.

 

The colleague you wanted to persuade about the murmur you heard.

 

You're a vet and you want the client to hear his dog's heart or lung problem so he could be persuaded to go ahead with the procedure you were recommending.
