Resumo: Introduction: Despite pulmonary auscultation being a well-established method in clinical practice, it faces criticism regarding its accuracy, reproducibility, and reliability. However, when subjected to more sophisticated methods, it has shown efficacy in diagnosis, obviating the need for more costly approaches. Objectives: The present project aims to develop a tool that optimizes the use of electronic stethoscopes, allowing for the capture, recording, transmission, and analysis of respiratory auscultation sounds on-site or remotely. Methodology: The development of this project consisted of the following steps: 1) literature review on pulmonary auscultation; 2) application of a questionnaire based on the Likert scale, which assessed the perception of healthcare professionals regarding the accuracy of auscultation, the terminology used, the perception of electronic devices, and interaction methods such as platforms. Additionally, an evaluation of auscultation was conducted by providing 05 respiratory sounds, with greater accuracy observed for normal sounds and wheezing; 3) analysis of similar tools through the search for applications in the virtual stores, Google Play Store and Apple Store, resulting in 46 applications, of which only 02 closely aligned with the proposed platform; 4) development of a virtual design for the graphical interface; 5) creation of a navigable prototype. Conclusion: By making this tool available to the scientific community and society, we hope to contribute significantly to changing the way auscultation is performed, taught, and, above all, to providing distance services, which will not only facilitate diagnosis but also treatment and necessary assessments, including social security.
