Nothing specific.  Google for "battery powered speaker".  Lots of
hits.  

I would be tempted to suggest a battery power boom box or karaoke box.
What I'm worried about it that someone is going to run it with the
stethescope while charging the internal batteries.  Too big a risk, so
we're back to wireless again.

Look at the wireless microphones available for persentations.  They're
usually in the commercial sound business sites.  While most have a
built in microphone, there are a few that allow external mics. They're
unfortunately kinda pricy.  You might do better with wireless speakers
that are made to run off a hi-fi.  You didn't supply any interface
specifications, but if the stethescope puts out home hi-fi line levels
(about 0dBm), one of these should work.

I gotta run, but I'll see if I can find something later today.
