Morning Martin,

Couple of quick Points..

1) The Stethoscope is a fantastic piece of equipment that has helped saved Millions of lives.. no doubt about it.

2) In regards to it's sole use in diagnosing Pneumonia it does not do the job. Below are some facts.

"CAP Pnuemonia is diagnosed by assessing symptoms, making a physical examination and on x-ray. Other tests, such as sputum examination, supplement chest x-rays"

""A cornerstone of diagnosis is the chest x-ray, which is recommended for diagnosis in every circumstance and usually reveals an infiltrate (Fig. 2) at presentation. However, this finding may be absent in the dehydrated patient. Also, the radiographic manifestations of chronic diseases such as congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and malignancy can obscure the infiltrate of pneumonia."

3) And finally...

"ResApp Achieves Breakthrough Performance
in Paediatric Clinical Study"

"Correctly detected lower respiratory tract disease in 97% of patients
who were initial diagnosed as clear by experienced clinicians using
stethoscopes (an increase from the 80% reported previously)"

Wow.
Since "radiographic manifestations of chronic diseases such as congestive heart failure, COPD, and malignancy can obscure the infiltrate of pneumonia", that would suggest ResApp is superior to chest X-ray.
(At a fraction of the cost.)
ResApp should be used in every hospital in the world as a necessary adjunct to chest X-ray.
