ANYTIME you go for the "cheaper" route in medical equipment that is used to diagnose medical conditions, when it is a matter of life and death, you dont EVER opt for cheap! Listening for a puppy's heartbeat for fun....OK...go cheap...but dont think if you didnt have better quality equipment, you wouldnt hear any better, or any clearer, or any earlier in the pregnancy! With a hi quality scope, and knowing what you were listening to, you would be able to practically pick out an abnormal heart sound, in an individual baby, at 4 weeks....maybe earlier! QUALITY COUNTS, AND IT COSTS MORE! |
