Why students and educators love Littmann Stethoscopes:

Auditory repetition

Listening accurately for abnormal heart and lung sounds requires practice and repetition.

Audio/visual integration

Research shows that viewing heart and lung sounds while listening -- like you can with the 3M™ Littmann® CORE Digital Stethoscope and our learning app — makes it easier for students to understand what they are hearing.


Self-testing

The ability to assess one's accuracy is key to recognising when more training is needed. 

Refresher learning

Regularly-scheduled refresher learning for heart and lung sounds keeps your identification skills accurate over time.

Littmann Learning App for students

This powerful app is designed to help users learn and assess the skills related to auscultation with self-testing, graduated learning modules*, and a completion certificate accessible directly on your smartphone.

Learn everything from the basics to recognizing benign and pathological heart and lung sounds with visual phonocardiogram and frequency graphs, video and audio, and pre- and post- reading quizzes.**

Download and set up the app.
The Littmann Learning App is available on the App Store® and on Google Play Store®. Add the Littmann Learning subscription for full access to all Littmann Learning content during your subscription period.

Why we’re different

Compared to other leading stethoscopes, Littmann stethoscopes excel at allowing you to hear sounds at lower frequencies.*

*Based on tests of the Littmann® Cardiology IV™ Stethoscope and Littmann® Classic III™ Stethoscope against globally-available comparable stethoscopes in an equivalent class using recorded heart sounds with diaphragm.
