Lenora Leonard started the topic Disposable ear pieces for stethoscopes in the forum
Environment, Equipment & Products 3 years, 8 months agoHello IPCIreland members
When dedicating stethoscopes in patient rooms, staff do not like to use them due to the earpiece being difficult to clean.

Guidelines, Standards and Protocols 3 years, 9 months agoHi Lenora
Maybe this query should be raised to the AMRIC team, we had heard that a paper was going to NPHET in relation to issues such as this but haven’t seen anything as of yet.
