Stethascopes
The first lab in Clinical Proceedures 1 was in giving a physical exam, so we all had to rush out and buy stethascopes. I got a Littman Classic II, about a midrange model.
I go through the entire semester thinking that I either have a defective model or more likely I'm going deaf. My fellow students, most of which are half my age, are having no trouble hearing anything, but I can't hear squat. On kittens it seemed to work OK but I assumed at the time it was because I love kittens and was just paying more attention...
Last class in Small Animal Nursing I was the class on Stethascopes, at which point I have to do a fancy report with facts & pictures and all that fluff.
I then discover I have gone through the entire semester with a PEDIATRIC model.
