Eko DUO ECG + Digital Stethoscope

I give this 5 stars solely for the stethoscope itself. I absolutely love it. At times I have even had people at work asking to borrow it to assess their patients. The only negative thing I will bring up is that it can be difficult to pair with the android app. Sometimes it will pair, sometimes not. If It doesn't, I have to clear the app cache and then it will pair again. However, I still give 5 stars as I am only reviewing the stethoscope itself and not the app.

I am a physician who works in a busy urban emergency department. In the first couple of shifts with working with the DUO, the sound quality and ease of use has been great. The DUO replaces a Littmann 3100 electronic that I had before. The price of the Littmann 3100 is similar to the DUO, but the DUO quality and utility is superior in my opinion. It takes a few uses to get used to the rectangular form factor of the DUO, but after a while using it feels routine and normal. The 1 lead ECG is helpful, particularly in patients who are very tachycardic and I would like a quick look before a formal 12 lead. I have found it is faster and easier to have the patient hold the DUO in their hands, fingers from each hand on each lead, than to have them undress and place the DUO on their chest to get a quick look. The build quality has been good. After several shifts I haven't had to charge it yet. My only criticism would be that I have already lost one of the ear pieces - I just noticed it was gone into the abyss suddenly. For the price point, this shouldn't happen. Nonetheless, they do give you some replacements but I hope it doesn't happen again. Overall, I think the value of this stethoscope is great and I would recommend it in the ER setting.

Best amplified digital stethoscope ever.

The audio is excellent. The phono cardio gram is interesting but I am still sorting it out. The earbuds became loose and detach easily. I already lost 2 of them.
Will love to see the analytics but they are not shown without a subscription.

Hi Connor,
I bought the EKO DUO essentially for 2 reasons.
The first one is that I have a problem of presbyaccousia with my right ear (it doesn't allow me "correct" auscultations with my Littmann III (I have 3 of them) as much in "cardiology" as in "pneumology".
The second one is that I needed a connected sthetoscope that would allow me to make auscultation recordings and listen to them "amplified"... so I chose EKO DUO which corresponds well to my "needs" ...
I must confess that I hesitated for a long time with another Australian sthetoscope that you have certainly heard about. It is the STHETEE which is Australian but which has no reseller in France or in Europe ... it has characteristics that seem very "revolutionary" including the use of Artificial Intelligence ...
I had a third reason it is the "surveillance" of my wife's aortic valve which has a narrowing of this valve.
Best regards
Doctor B.Fabreguettes

In fast pace medical care today, the EKO allows quick cardiac diagnostics in the rural (non-critical care setting) along with great acoustics for improved auscultation. this is my 2nd EKO. gotta keep the bugs at bay and COVID away

Great device!

This stethoscope is amazing. It is very touchy as far as movement goes, which causes a lot of artifact. But other than that.... I am thoroughly impressed by this product.

First usage out in the field was great! I have noticed a little static coming through my hearing aids, but other than that is seems to work really well.

I work in an ambulance and currently attending nursing school, I received this product to help with my assessment skills, and it works amazing. the ECG is very useful with standard patient and is easy to read and easy to use. I have used the littman 3200 which is more expensive, but if you can get pass the new design type and recognize its capabilities then it is a quick adjustment that is well worth it. I look forward to using this for the foreseeable future.
