description | Conventional stethoscope is a useful clinical examination tool to aid evaluation of the underlying clinical condition, especially respiratory and cardiac illnesses, even before definitive imaging studies are performed. Auscultation with a stethoscope becomes highly challenging when wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) because the hood of the PPE covers both the ears. Herein, we describe an innovation that involves refashioning of the head cover device of the PPE suit to facilitate conventional auscultation using a stethoscope. In resource-limited settings where advanced gadgets such as wireless stethoscopes may be lacking, redesigning the head cover of the PPE suit can allow the use of manual stethoscopes without increasing the risk of exposure to the pathogen of concern. |
