The Paediatric Littmann Stethoscope, commonly known as the Littmann Classic II Pediatric Stethoscope, is a professional medical diagnostic instrument specifically designed for auscultation in children and smaller patients. Featuring a precision-engineered stainless steel chestpiece, a paediatric-sized diaphragm, and a traditional open bell, this stethoscope supports clear listening to heart, lung, and other internal body sounds during clinical examinations.
Also known as the Littmann Paediatric Stethoscope, Littmann Classic II Pediatric, 3M Littmann Children's Stethoscope, or Littmann Pediatric Dual-Head Stethoscope, the device is suitable for paediatricians, nurses, clinical officers, general practitioners, and medical students.
The stethoscope features a dual-sided chestpiece with a 3.3 cm diaphragm and a traditional bell measuring approximately 2.5 cm. The smaller listening surfaces are designed for easier positioning on children compared with larger adult stethoscope chestpieces.
The diaphragm is primarily used for listening to higher-frequency body sounds, while the open bell supports the examination of lower-frequency sounds.
The Littmann Classic II Pediatric incorporates a solid stainless steel chestpiece and soft-sealing ear tips to support acoustic sensitivity, durability, and comfortable use.
Its anatomically angled headset helps position the ear tips correctly within the examiner's ears, while the single-lumen tubing transmits sound from the chestpiece to both earpieces.
The tubing is manufactured without natural rubber latex or phthalate plasticizers, making it suitable for healthcare professionals seeking a latex-free stethoscope.
With an overall length of approximately 71 cm and a weight of approximately 105 g for standard configurations, the device offers a balance between portability, comfortable handling, and professional acoustic performance.
The Classic II Pediatric Stethoscope is available in several tubing colours, including black, red, Caribbean blue, and raspberry. The exact catalogue number depends on the selected colour and finish.
