Description

The Welch Allyn Harvey DLX 2 Stethoscope is a specialized tool crafted for medical professionals seeking precise auscultation of cardiac, pulmonary, and vascular sounds. Developed in collaboration with Dr. W. Proctor Harvey, MD, this stethoscope is engineered to enhance sound detection without relying on variable pressure techniques.

Key Features

• Chestpiece Construction: Made from trumpet brass, the chestpiece is designed to improve sound transmission and clarity. It is available in both double-head and rotatable triple-head configurations, with options for a brass bell and either a flat or corrugated diaphragm. Pediatric chestpieces are also available.

• Dual-Bore Tubing: The stethoscope features dual-bore (dual-lumen) tubing, providing two uninterrupted sound channels. The tubing measures 17 inches, contributing to an overall length of 28 inches.

• Adjustable Binaurals: The fully adjustable, rotatable binaurals come with a triple-leaf spring encased in polyurethane, ensuring comfort during use. Interchangeable ear tips are provided in both soft and hard options for a secure fit.

• Anti-Chill Ring: The brass anti-chill ring adds comfort during examinations, while the chrome-plated brass construction of the chestpieces and binaurals ensures durability. The stethoscope is latex-free, with a polycarbonate diaphragm available in different styles.
