8. The medical diagnostic device of claim 1 , wherein the medical diagnostic device is configured to be in wireless communication with an electronic device to transmit the medical data collected by the one or more microphones of the garment and the one or more diagnostic components of the chair to the electronic device.
9. The medical diagnostic device of claim 1 , wherein the medical diagnostic device is configured to provide a medical physical examination of the body of the user based upon the medical data collected by the one or more microphones of the garment and the one or more diagnostic components of the chair.
10. The medical diagnostic device of claim 1 , wherein the garment is configured to be secured around at least one of a chest, a torso, an abdomen, or arms of the user.
11. The medical diagnostic device of claim 1 , wherein the garment includes electrocardiogram leads that are configured to make contact with the body of the user.
12. The medical diagnostic device of claim 1 , wherein the medical diagnostic device is configured to wirelessly transmit the medical data collected to a device.
13. The medical diagnostic device of claim 1 , wherein the air compartment is configured to be wirelessly controlled by an external remote.
14. The medical diagnostic device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more microphones are configured to contact a chest and a ribcage of the user to conduct heart and lung auscultation.
15. The medical diagnostic device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more microphones includes a first microphone located on a front portion of the garment that is configured to contact a chest of the user and a second microphone located on a side of the garment that is configured to contact a ribcage of the user.
16. The medical diagnostic device of claim 1 , wherein the chair is configured to recline the back of the chair with respect to the seat of the chair from an upright position to a reclined position.
17. The medical diagnostic device of claim 1 , wherein the one or more pressure sensors disposed on the seat of the chair, the one or more pressure sensors disposed on the back of the chair, or both are configured to detect a posture of the user when the user is sitting in the chair.
18. A chair configured for medical diagnostic evaluation, comprising:
a garment attached to the chair and configured to be worn by a user while seated in the chair, wherein the garment includes one or more microphones configured to collect medical data based on internal sounds from a body of the user;
a blood pressure cuff coupled to an arm of the chair;
a pulse oximeter coupled to the arm of the chair;
a first pressure sensor disposed on a seat of the chair and a second pressure sensor disposed on a back of the chair, wherein the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor are configured to detect that the user is properly seated in the chair with a back of the user positioned against the back of the chair;
an air compartment configured to fill with air to identify a location of pain or discomfort of the user; and
a battery configured to power the blood pressure cuff, the pulse oximeter, the first pressure sensor, the second pressure sensor, and the air compartment,
wherein the chair is configured to recline the back of the chair with respect to the seat of the chair from an upright position to a reclined position, and wherein the medical diagnostic evaluation is completed either in the upright position, the reclined position, or both.
19. The chair of claim 18 , wherein the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor are configured to provide an initial signal to the chair when the user is seated in the chair to activate the blood pressure cuff, the pulse oximeter, and the air compartment.
