Stethoscope Guide for Healthcare Workers with Hearing Loss
According to the World Health Organization, 430 million people have disabling hearing loss, while an even greater number suffer from mild or undiagnosed hearing loss. Healthcare professionals with hearing loss can find it difficult to hear subtle, low-frequency heart sounds with a stethoscope or other clinical tools.
At Eko, we believe hearing loss shouldn't prevent clinicians from providing the best care possible. So we created this guide on how digital stethoscopes can work with hearing aids, cochlear implants, and Bluetooth-enabled devices.
