Eko digital stethoscopes: Use of the Eko CORE 500 digital stethoscope and 3M Littmann CORE Digital Stethoscope to listen for and record lung sounds.
Study summary
The main objectives of the study are to: train and validate binary classifiers for wheeze, coarse crackle, fine crackle, rhonchus, stridor, rales, and cough, as well as determine correspondence between type/location of adventitious lung sound and type of pulmonary condition.

Primary outcome measure(s)
Primary Objective: Collection of Lung Sound Recordings to Explore Machine Learning Algorithm for Classifying Adventitious Lung Sounds — 14-15 months The primary objective of this study is to collect normal and abnormal lung sounds of up to 750 patients per study site, by having clinicians use the Eko CORE and/or Eko CORE 500 device(s) in real clinical settings, as part of standard of care clinical practice which will then be used to explore an ML algorithm for classifiers for wheeze, coarse crackle, fine crackle, rhonchus, stridor, rales, and cough.
