i would go with this one. either this one or go up one level (littmann ranks its scopes by sensitivity). use their website to determine which one you want, and then amazon to find the best price

I am sure that she appreciates your thoughtfulness, but you would have to order the metric conversion chart, with handwritten instructions to fine tune it, and that might be too complicated. Plus she would also need the time zone conversion chart to calibrate it. It might just be too much for her.

I believe the picture is wrong. For the price and the model you should be getting the one with the illumination. Regardless, Amazon will refund anything as long as its within the specified time. You really have nothing to lose. Also, this particular scope moves in price a lot (on amazon) from about 470.00-530.00. I would buy it now given the price that they are offering.

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.

Short Answer: NoYou're a doctor, go get an AccuVein AV 300, a Venoscope, a Veinlite Transilluminator, or a Veintector...NOT a $17 Chinese knockoff of a tactical light.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0059UGT1K/ref=pd_aw_sbs_e_1?pi=SL500_SS115This one seems to be the best reviewed one here. This is where my money would go.

My suggestion would be to purchase the PISA pump that comes in the small padded carrying case and skip the backpack or tote all together and get a different bag that suits your needs. This is what I ended up doing with my first child because I am an ER nurse that had to pump during 12 hours shifts. I needed lots of room, so I bought a 31 brand utility tote that fit all my power adaptors, nursing covers, stored milk, pump etc. Like this one: http://www.thirtyonegifts.com/catalog/product/495/catid/22/swid/229b/zip-top-organizing-utility-tote-u-r-u-in-u-r-u-swirl-dot/

We are looking for the same type furniture - for locking patient charts. Did you end up finding something and if you like it, would you mind sharing what you found? Thanks

As long as the recipient likes Dr. Who and specifically the tenth doctor. I love mine. It's very detailed and accurate.

The one I got was the Garmin Premium Heart Rate Monitor (Soft Strap) ordered on Amazon. It works perfectly.

Honestly, I inspected mine and put it on for maybe a minute or two and decided it was a horrible investment. I work in critical care, and it was not at all what I'd hoped it would be. I would send you mine for just the cost of shipping, but I would still feel it would be a rip off for you.

I think this batclip can hold a pediatric and neonatal stethoscopes because you can adjust the strap to any size. A lot of the nurses at work asked me where to buy this stethoscope holder.

I'm sorry but I don't know what is ment by after market, But they look like and work just like the expensive ones 40+ a box The box says not for retail sale If you want I can scan the box and send it to. My wife was without insurance and therfore trying to cut expenses and medical is the biggest on but our plan is working I'll be happy to share with others email:ralphwandkathym@yahoo.com The big question is why does medical have to be so expensive and is it always necessary at all times someone has to make the decision thats becuase the doctors hospitals don't either.

I find this one to be very accurate. I take it to my many appointments and compare readngs. I even had a tech intraining place the regular cuff wrong and I tried to tell him. He got a High readng so I did it with mine and showed the difference. the nurse took it again and it was the same as my reading.

Not much, Leann. Plus the screen is hard to read and it's powered by watch batteries, if that tells you anything. I'd look for a specialized medical version. I'm sure somebody makes one.

Yes but the way it's built it's not meant for that multiple patient use. I use it only to confirm initial reading pre op patients using hospital grade pulse ox ( sort of transferring patients room to or). Nonin would be a better option. Lastly you use this on transporting as an emt there's a big chance you'll lose it in a chaotic situation

Heart Stent would be fine, I imagine they are referring to a pace maker, something that actually uses electronics. A stent would not interfere. It works great, I like it.
