Print Profile(1)

Description
The Pinard horn is a type of stethoscope, named for its resemblance to a French horn's mouthpiece; its middle is hollowed out, much like a French horn's mouthpiece. -wikipedia
The Pinard horn is frequently used to listen to a fetal heartbeat in a pregnant woman's abdomen. Position the longer end against the fetal heart and place your ear to the other end. Consider the gestational age to determine fetal position and differentiate it from the mother's heartbeat.
