Littmann and Heine Stethoscopes Now Available from ORSupply.com

Dec. 4, 2008 - PRLog -- LOUISVILLE, KY — Littmann and Heine stethoscopes can now be purchased online at ORSupply.com, the Internet’s largest marketplace for surgical supplies and medical devices. By adding Littman and Heine stethoscopes to its online store, ORSupply.com further delivers on its pledge to offer the best brands of supplies and instruments for anesthesia, cautery, diagnostics, EMS, patient monitoring, respiratory therapy and surgery.

“Littmann stethoscopes from 3M have long been the industry standard in performance and quality,” says Jason Rezvanian, Director of E-commerce for ORSupply.com.  “Littman stethoscopes are known for precision, acoustical superiority and exceptional performance, and we’re excited to sell them at ORSupply.com.”

ORSupply.com’s selection of Littmann cardiology stethoscopes includes the Cardiology III, Cardiology S.T.C. and Master Cardiology. Each features Littmann’s tunable technology that provides convenience, versatility and enhanced acoustics. Physicians can utilize the tunable technology to control bell and diaphragm modes by altering pressure on the chestpiece.

ORSupply.com’s lineup of Littman products includes Littmann’s innovative electronic stethoscopes. The Littman Model 3000 is the first electronic stethoscope to have Ambient Noise Reduction (ANR) in the chestpiece, which decreases room noise by an average of 75 percent and amplifies difficult-to-hear sounds from the heart, lungs and other parts of the body. The Model 3000 utilizes ANR to amplify sounds up to 18 times greater than the best acoustic stethoscopes available today.

ORSupply.com also sells the Littman Model 4100WS, which is the successor to the Model 3000. The 4100WS features ANR in conjunction with exclusive digital signal processing (DSP), which enables recording, storage, and playback capabilities. Physicians can utilize DSP functions to transfer recorded sounds to compatible computers, PDAs and other Littmann stethoscopes.

In addition to high-end stethoscopes from Littman, ORSupply.com now sells economically-priced physical stethoscopes and diagnostic exam stethoscopes from Heine. According to Rezvanian, ORSupply.com’s selection of Heine stethoscopes has proven popular among value-conscious physicians looking for high quality products.

“Primary care physicians, nurses and pediatricians love Heine stethoscopes because they are made with high quality components and are designed for everyday use. Physicians are purchasing Heine stethoscopes from ORSupply.com because we provide a hassle-free online ordering process and quality personal service,” says Rezvanian.

Heine Gamma stethoscopes, available now from ORSupply.com, are the result of Heine’s 60-year tradition of reliability and precision. Many of Heine’s products are manufactured using state-of-the-art technology that guarantees accuracy within one twentieth of a human hair. As anyone who has used a Heine stethoscope can attest, this obsession with quality and precision is manifest in an uncompromised user experience. Heine’s success in providing such a high degree of customer satisfaction is also due, in part, to the extensive benchmarking and product testing to which the company has committed itself over the past half century. In some cases, this commitment results in over 70 separate in-process quality checks.

Heine and Littmann can be purchased now at ORSupply.com, which has a growing stable of industry-leading brands. ORSupply.com also sells stethoscopes and other diagnostic instruments made by Welch Allyn and Sun Med. In the coming weeks, ORSupply.com plans to add products from Riester and American Diagnostic.
