The eKuore Amplified stethoscope has been specifically developed for health professionals with hearing impairment or hearing loss. This digital stethoscope features 5 different volume levels that amplify auscultation by up to 50 times. It is particularly user-friendly: eKuore Amplified stethoscopes can be connected directly to hearing aids or cochlear implant. These diagnostic instruments can also be easily connected to headphones or speakers via cable or Bluetooth function.

The eKuore Pro® electronic stethoscope combines innovative design with smart technology. If you connect the stethoscope with a mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet, you will be able to visualize, save, and forward quickly and easily auscultation records on the eKuore app. You can also change the device’s frequency with just one click, as well as choosing between a lung, heart, or heart and lung mode, depending on the recording. The stethoscope’s filter reliably cancels out any background noises.

eKuore adapts to your needs & requirements

One stethoscope – many functions! The eKuore stethoscope is anything but a conventional auscultation deice. Despite its multiple functions and innovative design, it is very easy to use.

• eKuore may look different on the outside, but it is used just like a conventional stethoscope. Simply press the chestpiece on the patient’s chest and back.
• Nobody likes to work under pressure! Your eKuore stethoscope perform best when pressed lightly against the skin.
• We advise starting with the first volume level when you start auscultating. Feel free to increase it gradually as needed.

eKuore Pro Amplified: an update for your hearing aid

eKuore stethoscopes are compatible with almost all common headphones and hearing aids. This diagnostic instrument does not have ear hooks or ear tips, unlike conventional stethoscopes. You will be able to, depending on the model, increase the sound quality and wearing comfort. You can also use a control pad to manually adjust the volume: There are 5 different volume levels which can amplify the noise up to 50 times.

To ensure the highest possible functionality and maximum wearing comfort, we recommend the following connections with a hearing aid:

• Hearing aids with open fittings / In-Ear hearing aids: Wireless On-Ear headphones or wired: These headphones ensure that background noise be canceled. Headphones with an additional Noise-Cancelling function can filter out unnecessary background noise.
• Cochlear implants / electronic hearing prosthesis:: wired In-Ear or On-Ear headphones. Headphones with additional Noise-Canceling function can filter out unnecessary ambient noise.

The stethoscope can also be connected to a Bluetooth speaker, which is included in the Premium Kit, perfect for medical students! There should be at least a 2 meters distance between the stethoscope and the speaker in order to avoid possible interference problems.

Using wireless headphones simplifies the auscultation examination, especially in those where the health professionals must wear protective equipment (for example, with COVID-19 patients), as there are no cables or ear hooks that interfere with this equipment. In addition, you will have the option of leaving the in-ear headphones in your ear after each auscultation, which will save you the time of having to take them off and on every time.

Digitize results with the free eKuore Pro app

Auscultation can be recorded quickly and easily with the eKuore app. The audio files are automatically saved on your smartphone and can be conveniently shared via the sharing function. You can also control the filter and volume modes in the app.

The eKuore Pro stethoscope is also compatible with the eKuore Vet app for veterinarians. In this app, you will get access to the usual tools (for example, various lung and heart filters or live phonocardiographies) as well as other additional functions especially made for animal's examinations.

The eKuore stethoscope features three different chestpieces designed for auscultating adults (included in the Basic Kit), infant, children, and teenagers (optionally available or included in the Premium Kit). Replacing the chestpieces also reduces the risk of infection.
