Customer Reviews of Prestige EKG Caliper
Customer Review: Very fine tool. Summary: 5 Stars
Use mine many times every day. High quality; best I have ever used during my 25+ years in medicine. Very worthy.
Customer Review: Great calipers, poorly designed for placing in your coat Summary: 3 Stars
The calipers themselves are great. I've had mine for over a year and a half and has not fallen apart, it doesn't get loose... and what else can you say about calipers? They are simple tools, as long as they are sturdy, which these are.
The problem is the overall design is not very well suited for a coat/shirt pocket. The cover that comes with it is loose and will come off easily or just fall off, exposing the sharp points. And since the calipers are small and don't have a stable means of hooking onto your pocket, it falls into the pocket, from where you have to fish it out when needed. And when you do, watch out for the cover coming off and drawing blood from either your finger or your chest wall. Plus its a pain to pull it out when you have other stuff in your pocket... And for those who care about appearances (it does make a difference on rounds you know) it looks way goofy on rounds when the attending is trying to fish out calipers from their pocket...
Customer Review: finally figured it out Summary: 2 Stars
i suppose the mfg assumed that anyone who ordered these would know what they needed to do....But alas, i am a beginning ekg student and this came in a plastic bag without one piece of paper, instruction etc.
after much fiddling around and looking at my online tutorial i was able - i think - to master it...
