Heart auscultation is the justification for cardiac performance, physiological and pathological information [ 3 ] since this idea causes doctors to have more time and is expected to be easier [ 2 The idea of an electronic stethoscope equipped with an automatic identification system of heart rate seems the appropriate solution [ 1 Current technology has been trying to make a non-invasive tool for early diagnosis of the disease. The results indicated that an electronic stethoscope system could provide suitable information for BPM value and could display heart sound signals.Ĭardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death in the world.

The real-time measurements using the system are not significantly different from the manual measurements, with around 2-5%, with a delay of 1.7 to 2 seconds. The result shows that the fourth-order Butterworth filter was the best filter, with a gain of 0.707 Volt, -3.01 dB, and 0.782 Volt, -2.137 dB, respectively. The low- and high- pass filter circuit was with cutoffs of 180 Hz and 50 Hz, respectively. The condenser microphone transmited the signal into the signal conditioning circuit, and amplified it from 10 to 30 times. This simulation and experimental study was carried out for electronic circuit design testing. This presented a low cost stethoscopes consisting of a preamplifier, low-pass filter, high-pass filter, microcontroller and Bluetooth. In this work, a new design with a low cost electronic stethoscope is designed and implemented as a simple circuit for a replacement with conventional stethoscopes. This study aims to evaluate an electronic stethoscope for automatic identification of heart rate by monitoring Beats Per Minute (BPM) in real-time. Better accurate stethoscope measurements have been needed to diagnose heart problems earlier, monitor patients, and provide initial clinical data for physicians.
