It is a medical device used to listen to sounds inside the body, particularly the sounds made by the heart, lungs, and digestive system. It consists of two earpieces connected by tubing to a chest piece. The chest piece typically has a diaphragm and a bell, which are used to detect different types of sounds.
The diaphragm is a flat, circular disc that is used to listen to high-frequency sounds, such as those made by the lungs or heart valves. When the diaphragm is placed against the patient's skin, it vibrates in response to the sounds produced by the body, and these vibrations are transmitted through the tubing to the healthcare provider's ears.
The bell is a small, cup-shaped attachment on the chest piece that is used to listen to low-frequency sounds, such as those produced by blood flowing through narrow vessels or by certain types of heart murmurs. When the bell is placed against the patient's skin, it captures the sounds and transmits them through the tubing to the healthcare provider's ears
