Wearable stethoscope patch

A stethoscope system, comprising:

• a plurality of wearable stethoscope patches adapted to be worn by a user, each comprising:
• a substrate;
• an accelerometer in the substrate, the accelerometer configured to sense acoustic pressure waves in the user's body to produce a first electrical signal;
• and
• an antenna over the substrate and in electric communication with the accelerometer, wherein the antenna is configured to wirelessly transmit measurement data based on the first electrical signal;
• and
• a control device configured to wirelessly receive the measurement data from the antenna and to produce stethoscopic data based on the measurement data.

A method for stethoscopic measurement, comprising:

• sensing acoustic pressure waves in a user's body by an accelerometer in a wearable stethoscope patch attached to the user's body;
• producing a first electrical signal by the accelerometer in response to acoustic pressure waves, the accelerometer in electric communication with an antenna;
• wirelessly transmitting measurement data based on the first electrical signal from the antenna to a control device;
• and
• producing stethoscopic data by the control device based on the measurement data.
