Who use a stethoscope?

A stethoscope is used to listen to internal sounds within a body. The act of listening is called auscultation. A medical professional is the most likely user. This trained user can assess cardiac and respiratory functions when correctly using the simple device. And in addition to this, arterial and venus flow can be heard and so can intestinal activity, among other things. The stethoscope finds limited use with mechanics, though a long screwdriver pressed to an engine part with the handle pressed to the ear works pretty well. Some other applications may present themselves with a bit of thought and consideration. Links can be found below.
