Oh! The Things You’ll Hear
Stethoscopes were invented to be able to hear sounds of the human body. This instrument pressed up to the chest or back, amplifies and transmits heartbeat, breathing and lung sounds, and even the gurgling of the intestines. Today’s modern stethoscopes are a bit more flexible than the long, funnel-like cones of the past. But despite their physical differences, the function of this oh-so-important tool of medicine remains the same. It’s only fitting that we made stethoscope earrings, keeping them close to the ears. This pair of science jewelry makes a great gift for physicians, nurses, EMTs, and healthcare workers around the world.
