Summary

This clinical trial is conducted within the research project 'Computerized Lung Sound Analysis'. The research goal is the development of a system enabling the automatic classification of lung sounds, which will result in a decision support system for physicians.

The objective of this trial is to create a small lung sound corpus, enabling the development of a prototype of the described system. Therefore, investigators record lung sounds with several lung sound transducers distributed on the posterior chest of human test subjects.

DEVICE

Lung Sound Recording System

The lung sounds are recorded over the posterior chest in supine position on an examination table. A foam pad with several lung sound transducers is placed under the back of the subjects. During the recording the subjects wear a nose clip and hold a pneumotachograph with both hands. The subjects are instructed to breath at a certain airflow rate during inspiration, with natural breathing during expiration. Therefore, they receive a real-time feedback for the airflow rate. The airflow signal and the lung sounds from 16 lung sound transducers are recorded simultaneously for 30 seconds.
