What Instrument used to listen to heartbeat?
The heartbeat can be measured in several different ways, the most common being to count the beats to get the heart rate - beats-per-minute. This can be done with a watch and a finger on an accessible blood vessel, an artery. Or you can take an electro cardiogram, where an electronic instrument is attached by leads to the chest and picks up and registers the tiny electric impulses that controls the heart. Or you can use a stethoscope and listen to the beats. Or you can use an ultrasound imager, see the movement, the flow and the heart rate.

What does a stethescope do?
What Is a StethoscopeA stethoscope is a medical device for listening to sounds inside the body. On one end of the stethoscope is a diaphragm, a vibrating membrane designed to pick up sound. The diaphragm is connected to a hollow, air-filled tube. That tube splits in two and leads to earpieces, which the doctor wears. The stethoscope can be placed against the patient's chest to listen to her breath or heartbeat, or against the lower abdomen to listen to the intestines.How a Stethoscope WorksThe doctor holds the stethoscope against the patient's body, usually to listen to the breath or heartbeat. When the heart beats or the lung fills with air, it produces small sound vibrations through the body. These vibrations are picked up and amplified by the diaphragm. The sound passes into the tube, which transfers it into the doctor's earpieces. There are also electrical stethoscopes, which use a kind of microphone to pick up and amplify the sound. Because electrical stethoscopes can lose or distort parts of the sound, however, most doctors use the acoustic version.
