Stethoscope (Product Code: SLE/BL/057) is a basic medical stethoscope with a single diaphragm head, used to listen to the pulse and to breathing in school and college biology and health lessons. Students work in pairs to hear heartbeats and breath sounds for themselves, which makes circulation and respiration topics easier to grasp than from a textbook alone. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as part of its biology lab equipment in India.

Working in pairs, one student places the diaphragm gently on their partner's chest while the other sits still and breathes normally. They count heartbeats for a set time, then listen at different points on the chest and back to hear air moving in and out of the lungs. Repeating the count after a minute of light exercise shows how quickly the heart rate rises and how long it takes to settle, giving the class real data for a graph.
The stethoscope also fits a health education kit for schools in India, where students learn what normal heart and breath sounds are like before studying the heart and lungs in more detail. Before each use, fit the earpieces so they point slightly forward into the ears, and ask for a quiet room so faint sounds are easier to pick out. Wipe the earpieces and diaphragm clean between students.
The Stethoscope is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades under the ScienceLab brand from Ambala, Haryana, India, and provides it for teaching use to institutions in India and international markets. See the company profile for more about the company.

What kind of chest piece does the Stethoscope have?
The Stethoscope has a single diaphragm head. With only one chest piece, students simply place the diaphragm gently on the chest or back and listen, without switching between sides during a class practical.
What can students listen to with the Stethoscope?
Students use the Stethoscope to listen to the pulse (heartbeat) and to breathing sounds. Counting heartbeats before and after light exercise, and listening at several points on the back, gives a class real data for circulation and respiration lessons.
