  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ELECTRONIC STETHOSCOPE WITH ACTIVE HEADSET
    Publication number: 20240164739
    Abstract: The present description relates generally to methods and systems for an electronic stethoscope device with an active headset, including a speaker to project audio data generated by a chestpiece, the headset defining a closed back volume for the speaker. In this way, the headset provides a back volume of the speakers in order to tune the frequency response of the speakers to a target frequency mimicking the frequency produced by a conventional acoustic stethoscope.

  • Electronic stethoscope device with noise cancellation
    Patent number: 11741931
    Abstract: An electronic stethoscope device can be integrated into a conventional stethoscope to digitize auscultated sounds from the body of a patient. The device can be switched off so that the conventional stethoscope can be used as a standard stethoscope. When the device is switched on, the digitized auscultated sounds can be modified to remove the noise. Such modified sounds can be sent wirelessly from the electronic stethoscope device to a peripheral device that can receive such wireless signals, such as computer, cell phone, or cloud application, where the data can be viewed and manipulated further as desired.
