Testing a wearable device to detect wheezing sounds in children and adults

Doctors normally listen to your lungs with a stethoscope during an exam to check for wheezing and other breathing problems. This trial is testing a new wearable device called AeviceMD that can record and analyze lung sounds to detect wheezing automatically. The goal is to see if this device works as well as a doctor's ears and also if it can be used for remote monitoring of breathing.

Right now, detecting wheezing depends on a healthcare provider manually listening to your lungs, which can be slow and inconsistent. This trial exists to see if a wearable device could help detect breathing problems more reliably and perhaps even allow doctors to monitor patients from a distance.
