Phonocardiography with a Smartphone
Thoms, Lars-Jochen; Colicchia, Giuseppe; Girwidz, Raimund
Physics Education, v52 n2 Article 023004 Mar 2017
When a stethoscope is placed on the chest over the heart, sounds coming from the heart can be directly heard. These sound vibrations can be captured through a microphone and the electrical signals from the transducer can be processed and plotted in a phonocardiogram. Students can easily use a microphone and smartphone to capture and analyse characteristic heart sounds.
