The 3M™ Single-Patient Stethoscope can make your job easier while enhancing patient care and helping minimize the risk of cross-contamination.
-
One patient. One stethoscope.
Patients in isolation are among the most infectious and can be vulnerable and susceptible to infection. Using a single-patient stethoscope is a recommended isolation precaution that helps lower the risk of cross-contamination.¹ A single-patient stethoscope should be used with patients under isolation precautions, stay in the patient’s room while the patient is in isolation, and be disposed of when no longer needed.¹
Experience the difference for yourself.
