What is a dual-head stethoscope?
What is a dual-head stethoscope?
Info on how this is different from other stethoscopes and how it compares to other stethoscopes would be nice. What are the alternatives to a dual-head stethoscope? How common are they?
I'm required to get one for nursing school, and like-a-dummy, I bid on a stethoscope before I realized I didn't know if it was a dual-head. It is the littmann cardiology III.

most decent stethoscopes are dual head. They have a large side used for more general tasks (listening for a heart beat for example) and a smaller side used for more focused auscultation (can also be handy for small children's heartbeats). Mostly you end up using the big side. The model you mentioned appears to be a dual head so you should be fine.
