A study shows that listening at least 400 times to different heart sounds using iPod is an effective way to improve a doctor’s ability to detect heart ailments. The study by Temple University cardiologist Michael Barret said that the ability to detect heart anomalies is necessary to find a range of cardiac problems which reduces unnecessary tests like echocardiograms and stress tests.

"For 90 minutes, 149 medical students listened 400 times to the five most frequent heart murmurs. The singe practice session improved the rate of detection by stethoscope to 80 percent from 40 percent among generalists." (news.yahoo)
