Abstract
Apparatus and associated methodology for monitoring correlatable anatomical electrical and sound signals, such as electrical and audio signals produced by human heart activity, including (a) attaching to a selected, common anatomical site ECG (or other) electrode structure, and a multi-axial sound sensor, and (b) simultaneously collecting from adjacent that site both ECG(or other)-electrical and sound signals, where such sound signals arrive adjacent the site along multiple, angularly intersecting axes.
