Abstract
Auscultation is one of the most utilized physical examination procedures for listening to lung, heart and intestinal
sounds during routine consults and emergencies. Heart and lung sounds overlap in the thorax. An algorithm was used
to separate them based on the discrete wavelet transform with multi-resolution analysis, which decomposes the
signal into approximations and details. The algorithm was implemented in software and in hardware to achieve realtime signal separation. The heart signal was found in detail eight and the lung signal in approximation six. The
hardware was used to separate the signals with a delay of 256 ms. Sending wavelet decomposition data —instead of
the separated full signal— allows telemedicine applications to function in real time over low-bandwidth
communication channels.
