Cardiac Auscultation

One of the most important skills that a medical professional can learn is cardiac auscultation. Auscultation is the ability to diagnose medical conditions by listening to body sounds. A skilled physician or nurse can listen to a patient's heart and make a preliminary diagnosis of a murmur solely on sound. This talent requires practice and extensive study of the ailments that the human body may encounter.

While direct patient contact is ideal, Cardionics recognizes that it is not always possible to study cardiac auscultation with an individual patient. Telemedicine is one of the leading trends in the medical education field and remote diagnostics. Cardionics provides a number of electronic stethoscopes to that end. The company has consulted with experienced hospital professionals and instructors to develop products like the Ausculette II Telemedicine Auscultation System.

Teach Cardiac Auscultation at a Distance

The Ausculette II has a number of features that allow students to become proficient in cardiac auscultation or for clinicians to diagnose heart and lung sounds remotely. This device features standard connectivity with a number of teleconferencing systems offered by other companies such as Polycom, Tandberg, Life Size and VTEL..

Whether for Distance Learning or Remote Diagnosis, Cardionics has an electronic stethoscope system that will provide pure, clean sounds at a distance. With the Ausculette, for example, you can test the cardiac auscultation skills of up to four students simultaneously with the five outputs. This device is supplied with a Specialist Adult Diaphragm and includes an option for both adult and pediatric bells.

Sound quality on the Ausculette II is unparalleled in the industry. The instrument contains a series of filters used to isolate sounds at a range from 20Hz to 2,000Hz.
