Set Up Wireless Listening for Hearing Loss or Headphones January 25, 2023 18:49 Updated You can use wireless listening for real-time streaming of stethoscope sounds to Bluetooth-enabled audio devices such as hearing aids or headphones/earbuds. Wireless listening works for the CORE (2nd generation) and the DUO (2nd generation). They look like this: Tip Wireless listening can also be a safeguard from infectious disease. Here's how to set it up: Open the Eko App. Turn on your Eko device and pair it with the Eko App. Connect your Bluetooth-enabled headphones/earbuds, hearing aids, or speakers to your mobile device. Tip We recommend only having two Bluetooth devices simultaneously connected so that you have a strong wireless connectivity. In the Eko App, tap Menu, then App Settings. Toggle on the Play from Headphones setting and adjust the volume boost. Adjust the volume settings on your mobile device to listen to heart and lung sounds through your hearing aids or headphones. Note With this setup, if you adjust the volume on the CORE or DUO device itself, it won't affect the volume that you hear because the device volume is only applicable for attached stethoscope earpieces. Set up stethoscope for wireless listening (optional) You can set up wireless listening without the stethoscope earpiece attached. This is good for cases where you may be exposed to infectious disease. Here's how: On a fully assembled CORE stethoscope, remove the tubing by either unscrewing the barb/tubing from the bottom of the CORE or pulling the tubing off of the barb. On a fully assembled DUO, unscrew the tubing from the device. Put a surgical glove, cover, or stethoscope sleeve of your choice on the CORE or DUO so that the entire device is covered. This can be changed between patients. You can also clean the device with 70% isopropyl alcohol wipes (don't submerge the CORE or DUO in liquid). Tip Examples of stethoscope covers are Stethocap.com and Stethobarrier.com. Ausculate the patient. LBL: 0001052 Rev.1.0 Date of Issue: January 23, 2023
