==Digital Stethoscope - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240032887 titled 'Digital Stethoscope

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a patent application for a digital stethoscope that can be used for telemedicine consultations and real-time telemedicine monitoring. The device includes a detector of analog acoustic signals from the patient and a data processing system implemented via a secure encrypted web-protocol. It is accessible through a user interface of a progressive web-application on a portable computing device of the patient/physician with connected headphones. The acoustic signal detection device consists of an audio microphone, an analog signal pre-amplifier, an ADC, a microcontroller, and a battery. The microcontroller combines the signals from the ADC and the device status signals into a single packet and transmits it wirelessly to the data processing system. The software processing is carried out on the physician's or patient's device. This innovation allows for safe auscultation of patients with highly contagious diseases, such as COVID-19, while achieving increased signal processing quality/speed and reduced power consumption.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

an auscultation device that can be used for telemedicine consultations and real-time telemedicine monitoring. the digital stethoscope includes a detector of analog acoustic signals from the patient and a data processing system implemented via a secure encrypted web-protocol and accessible via the user interface of a progressive web-application on a portable computing device of the patient/physician with connected headphones. the acoustic signal detection device comprises a sequentially connected audio microphone, an analog signal pre-amplifier, an adc, a microcontroller, and a battery. the microcontroller combines the signals from the adc and the device status signals into a single packet and transmits it wirelessly to the data processing system. the software processing is carried out on the physician's or patient's device. an increase in the quality/speed of signal processing is achieved with reduced power consumption and with the possibility of safe auscultation of patients with highly contagious diseases, e.g., covid-19.
