👉 A stethoscope, often referred to as a stethoscope or a "hearing instrument," is an auditory apparatus that is used for the diagnosis and monitoring of the sounds produced by the human respiratory system. It consists of two separate instruments, one for the hearing and the other for the airway. The first instrument, known as the "hearing" part, is designed to pick up sound waves from the lungs, which are believed to be responsible for producing the normal sounds we hear.
