US Classification:

30340

Abstract:

Improved autoclavable medical instruments are manufactured with colored synthetic handles of sufficient heat resistance to allow autoclaving. This color coding assists in the segregation of instruments by ward or medical facility. The ready identification of the color-coded instruments reduces the risk of transmission of infectious diseases, as well as reducing the probability of theft or loss.

Assignee:

Prestige Medical Corporation - Northridge CA

International Classification:

A61B 702

US Classification:

181131

Abstract:

A stethoscope head with multiple removable diaphragm structures and bell components for adapting the stethoscope for use with infants or adults, or on sites having less skin area, such as between the ribs is described. The bell components further include a wider rim than a conventional rim for better acoustically sealing the rim to the skin of the patient's body above the site to be auscultated. Further, the bell component is metallic providing for better sound conductivity than a non-metallic bell component. A non-metallic ring is disposed on the rim to better acoustically seal the rim with the skin of the patient's body and further, provide comfort to the patient since the non-metallic ring is not as cold as the metallic rim. The bell component includes a thick body to exclude external noises from interfering with the sound to be auscultated.
