ABSTRACT:
A stethoscope holder is provided which may be secured to a piece of apparel, such as a pocket of a lab coat or the waist band of a pair of pants. The stethoscope holder includes a base having a front surface and a back surface. A rib which is generally U-shaped in elevation and L-shaped in cross-section, extends out from the front surface of the base. The rib defines a generally U-shaped channel which removably receives either the bell or diaphragm section of the chestpiece. A notch is formed at a bottom of the curved section of the rib and is sized to accept the tubing of the stethoscope. A flexible finger extends from the front surface of the base, below the rib and offset from the center of the base, to hold at least one of the ear pieces of the stethoscope. A spring biased clip is hingedly mounted to the back surface of the base, near the top thereof and is operable to selectively and removably secure the holder to an item of apparel.
