Testing a digital stethoscope in young children with cough or breathing trouble
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study is testing a digital stethoscope (a modern device that amplifies and records lung sounds) in young children who have a cough or trouble breathing. It does not test a medicine—just checks if the device can pick up useful breath sounds to help doctors decide on care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 2 months and 5 years old (2–59 months).
- Your child should have a cough or trouble breathing right now.
- No severe warning signs like grunting, blue skin, pauses in breathing, seizures, or being very drowsy.
- A parent or legal guardian must be present during the visit and agree (with signature) to let their child take part.
- You must be willing to give a phone number so the team can call you for a 7-day follow-up.

This trial tests new tools to help doctors diagnose and manage pneumonia in children. It may help children with cough or trouble breathing who are not severely ill.
This trial tests whether an AI-powered stethoscope can help doctors decide when to use antibiotics for children with mild pneumonia. It aims to avoid unnecessary antibiotics while still treating those who need them.
This study uses cough sounds, breath sounds, and a symptom questionnaire to help doctors better diagnose respiratory conditions in children. It aims to make diagnosis easier and faster by analyzing these sounds.
This study looks at how well a computer system can check children's health by listening to body sounds, like those from the heart, lungs, or belly. It is testing an AI system to see if it works well as an extra check alongside regular medical care.
This study uses a digital stethoscope to record lung sounds from adults with or without lung conditions. It aims to collect data that may help improve detection of breathing problems.
This study is testing a new electronic stethoscope (called Keikku) to see if it works well and is safe for checking heart murmurs in children and adults who are not in an emergency situation. If it works, it could give doctors a better tool for evaluating heart sounds.
