AB  - Digital medical instruments are essential in today's world to make fast and precise diagnoses. By combining several features into a single device, healthcare can be provided more affordably and with greater patient care and medical efficiency. This project describes the development of a cost-effective digital stethoscope featuring an integrated oximeter sensor and a sound transducer. The stethoscope facilitates the simultaneous monitoring of spO2 (Saturation of Peripheral Oxygen) levels and heart activity. The sound transducer converts cardiac sounds into electrical signals, enabling the detection of anomalies in heart function. Real-time data on these vital signs is transmitted to a web-application that will be deployed on the doctors' phone, providing them with immediate access to patient information. This innovative device offers a two in one solution that is both efficient and affordable for both patients and medical practitioners.
