Abstract: The invention relates to a thermometer-shaped oral device for measuring respiratory sounds. The oral device comprises a mouthpiece with a metallic tip for placement under the tongue and a neck around which the lips seal the mouth closed, preventing outside noises from interfering with the measurement of the respiratory sounds. The oral device performs the auscultatory function traditionally performed by a stethoscope. The metallic tip may contain a thermistor for oral temperature measurement, and in various embodiments the oral device may further comprise other vital signs sensors. The oral device may be in communication with a cloud server, as part of a system for remote auscultation by a physician and/or analysis of auscultation and/or other vital signs by a healthcare bot for detecting progression of respiratory or other diseases.
