To sort and output a plurality of sound kinds included in a respiratory sound.SOLUTION: A respiratory sound analysis apparatus includes: sorting means (210-250) for sorting a respiratory sound into a normal sound and an abnormal sound; and output means (125,260,270) for outputting an arbitrary respiratory sound from the sorted respiratory sound. The respiratory sound analysis apparatus can sort a respiratory sound and output an arbitrary respiratory sound so as to suitably analyze the respiratory sound including a plurality of sound kinds. The respiratory sound analysis apparatus may further include change means (125,260,270) capable of changing an output state of an arbitrary respiratory sound for every sound kind.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】呼吸音に含まれる複数の音種を分別して出力する。【解決手段】呼吸音解析装置は、呼吸音を正常音及び異常音に分別する分別手段（２１０〜２５０）と、分別した呼吸音のうち任意の呼吸音を出力する出力手段（１２５，２６０，２７０）とを備える。この呼吸音解析装置によれば、呼吸音を分別して任意の呼吸音を出力できるため、複数の音種を含んでいる呼吸音を好適に解析することが可能である。なお、呼吸音解析装置は、任意の呼吸音の出力状態を音種毎に変更可能な変更手段（１２５，２６０，２７０）を更に備えてもよい。【選択図】図１
