Medical student’s perception of electronic stethoscope designing and its use as a learning tool [PDF]
Introduction: In Indian educational setting, clinical examination is taught to Ist M.B.B.S. students in physiology. In auscultation, generally an acoustic stethoscope available in the market is used. It will be, however, interesting to teach auscultation

Development of a low-cost electronic stethoscope - DIY Digital Stethoscope
Auscultation while wearing PPE (especially coveralls), using traditional stethoscopes is often not feasible. While some commercially electronic stethoscopes can circumvent this problem by playing audio using headphones over/ inside PPE, the currently available ones are too costly.

A Robust Interpretable Deep Learning Classifier for Heart Anomaly Detection Without Segmentation
Traditionally, abnormal heart sound classification is framed as a three-stage process. The first stage involves segmenting the phonocardiogram to detect fundamental heart sounds; after which features are extracted and classification is performed.
