A note on these recordings: the wheeze, crackles and stridor clips are real auscultation recordings from Wikimedia Commons, each individually credited and licensed CC BY-SA. Normal breath sounds and rhonchi have no clip yet: we have not found a recording we are free to use. Snoring, gurgling and diminished breath sounds are described below without a clip for the same reason — the descriptions are there, the audio is not, and a synthesized substitute would be worse than silence.
