AF researchers test digital stethoscope for en route care
The digital noise-immune stethoscope, currently being evaluated by researchers with the 711th Human Performance Wing at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, connects into existing headsets used by aeromedical evacuation crews and critical care air transport teams. Traditional stethoscopes are difficult to use during en route care due to an aircraft’s noise environment. This noise-immune stethoscope aims to address that issue.

Tami Rougeau, Individual Mobilization Augmentee to the director of healthcare operations, Air Force Medical Support Agency, October 2016, Nashville, Tenn. The noise-immune stethoscope would improve on traditional stethoscopes as it would account for the challenging noise environments associated with en route care. (Courtesy photo)

AF researchers test digital stethoscope for en route care
Dr. David Burch, a research biomedical engineer and the medical technology solutions team lead for En Route Care Medical Technology Solutions Research Group with the 711th Human Performance Wing at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, collects data on vibration profiles while flying aboard a C-130J Super Hercules with the support of the 146th Airlift Wing Air National Guard, Feb. 9, 2018. This data will help improve and tailor noise-immune stethoscope technologies to ensure they can function during patient transport. Prior to such devices, use of a traditional stethoscope did not function as it was intended due to the dynamic, high-noise environment of an aircraft. (Courtesy photo)
