Do you need to use a stethoscope with this?

You do indeed. You have to have a stethoscope to hear the blood flow. When you hear it and then don't hear it gives you the systolic and diastolic. If you practice you can do it yourself but generally you have someone else take your bp.

NO, sorry i cannot help you with that, i bought this device just to have the chance to observe the progression of my child`s ears, not with the intention to do any treatment, so i have not use any apliances or devices with it. i apollogize.

Depends on the size of the tubing, but I have used them on everything from cheap no name stethoscopes to Litmann Master Cardilogy scopes and they are MUCH more comfortable, and I find I can hear better with them.

The stethoscope requires 2 watch-type batteries. My grandson's stethoscope batteries went dead a month after I bought the set, and I can't find replacement batteries for it. I took the batteries to Walmart, and they said the batteries are some kind of cheap brand that they can't find a comparable name brand battery for. So we're stuck with a stethoscope that won't work, until if and when I can figure out where to find replacement batteries.

Its quite easy to use. There are many devices available. Your doctor should advice.

No. You must have a belt pack to use this. It doesn't have to be a Shure beltpack, but it needs to have the same design plug.

Possibly. Quality of the stethoscope matters greatly. Make sure the tips are the right size for the ears: small, medium, or large.

I don't see why not... Since it has the tunable diaphragm, the pitches of sounds you hear will change with the amount of pressure applied to the stethoscope head. Based on that, a stethoscope that would have both chest pieces may be better? I think it would just be personal preference. It has 27" tubing, if you are in large animal practice. A longer stethoscope may be desired, but that would still be personal preference. I am a registered nurse, but have used it on my dogs, both large & small, & I was satisfied with results. Hope this helps :)

The thermometer does have a dial on it with different readings for the temperature. The stethoscope does use Batteries And it makes noise. The syringe does have a spring in it. My son loves this set!

No, the size of the mouthpiece is fine without it, unless you experience any discomfort or difficulty playing.Also, I would recommend purchasing the synthetic Didge instead of the bamboo one. :)

It doesn't require a stethoscope. If you don't know your bp, inflate to 170 mmHg. It'll go down from there automatically. It takes 2-3 times of doing this to get a good reading. The circumference of the cuff is 9-13 inches (from manual).

Not necessary. Most people that I asked do not use one. I bought one but have not used.

The two curettes that included are the ring and scoop with the latter is smaller that may work. However, ear cleaning should only be done by professional. Use the otoscope to detect problem.

It is not necessary, just if you have a more detailed information. But the heart rate monitor can be a big deal if you want to train with heart zones, I started to use it in my runs and it is wonderful to control yourself with your heart.

A mechanic's stethoscope (a common auto shop item) can help you find the source of the noise quickly.

no you do not, only the sanitizer needs to be running as long as you have the adapter hooked up to the cpap.

Headset not required. Just talk like a regular phone. If your hand is large enough to hold it.
