Information about the stethoscope:
The stethoscope is a diagnostic tool for assessing sound phenomena. The process of listening is called auscultation in medical terminology. In mechanical engineering, the stethoscope is also used, for example, to be able to detect incipient machine damage at an early stage via bearing noises. In human and veterinary medicine, the stethoscope is used to assess tones and noises that are related to the activity of the heart, lungs and intestines. Every physical examination includes auscultation of the heart valves and sometimes also the carotid arteries to rule out abnormal flow murmurs or transmitted pathological heart murmurs. When measuring blood pressure, a stethoscope is used to listen to the Korotkoff flow sounds. On some models, the chestpiece can be rotated, where there is a cone without a membrane as an alternative to the membrane side. This funnel enables a better representation of the lower frequency spectrum. This is particularly relevant in cardiology. This stethoscope is called a double-headed stethoscope, the head itself is called a double-headed chestpiece.
