N ii E THE ORIGIN OF THE STETHOSCOPE . . . Sounds in the thorax were tradi- tionally heard by placiiKj one ' s oar directly to the patient ' s chest, a method hampered by uiiclcanlinoss, layers of fat, and patient modesty. One day in 1816, Theophilc Laennec, a French physician, was pondering the problem of an obese woman with suspected heart disease. Children were playing in the yard in front of him; he watched as one child put his ear to Uie end of a wooden beam .is anoth- er tapped the opposite end. Laennec, well acquainted with the techniques of percussion and sound transmission, hurried back to the hospital, rolled a quire of paper into a cylinder, and applied one end to his patient ' s chest and the other to his ear. Amazed to hear sounds more clearly than before, Laennec began experi- menting with many forms of this new instrument, and finally settled on a wooden cylinder about one foot long. The rest of his life was spent correla- ting his physical findings with autop- sy results until he could accurately predict disease within the chest.
