3M Littmann Stethoscopes have collaborated with Eko. The 3M Littmann CORE Digital Stethoscope will offer clinicians access to both analogue and digital auscultation options and connects to Eko’s software and AI algorithms to help clinicians better interpret sounds and detect heart murmurs.

The 3M Littmann CORE Digital Stethoscope can connect to Eko software, including its heart murmur AI1 and its telemedicine software, enabling enhanced in-person or remote patient care.

Kristi Barnett, Sr Director, 3M Medical Devices said, "The new 3M Littmann CORE Digital Stethoscope combines the superior acoustics of the Littmann Cardiology IV Stethoscope with Eko's digital technology and software to aid and enhance a clinician’s auscultation assessments.”

Rajiv Gupta, Country Business Leader – Health Care Business, 3M India said, “The new Littmann CORE Digital Stethoscope makes it possible to listen and diagnose patients remotely as it allows easy sharing of data or live streaming to a remote provider during a telemedicine consultation. This can be leveraged as a means to protect healthcare professionals, whilst providing the highest standards of care.”

“For clinicians, listening is a gateway to making critical diagnoses. Being able to confidently assess heart and lung sounds helps ensure the best cardiac and pulmonary care possible,” said Connor Landgraf, co-founder and CEO, Eko.
