Abstract

The stethoscope comprises a bell which is equipped with a membrane (2) designed to be placed in contact with the skin of the subject who is to be auscultated, and it comprises means for stabilizing the position of said membrane (2) on said auscultation area in order to eliminate the appearance of parasite noises caused by the friction of said membrane on the skin of said subject. These means of stabilization are formed by barbs (5) projecting beyond the plane of the membrane (2). These barbs (5) form a crater on the skin of the auscultated subject, and they have a length allowing them to come into contact with the ausculation area well before the membrane (2).
