Introduction: Description for using stethoscopes adapted to hearing aids.
Aim: To describe the adaptation of HAs to stethoscopes used by 2 students in the health field with bilateral hearing impairment.
Case reports: Two subjects with hearing loss had their stethoscopes coupled to HAs because of the individual requirements of their professions (healthcare) to perform auscultation.
