In the paper below, in pediatric populations, the S1 and S2 probes had a correlation in readings of .98 (the most similar intraclass correlation).

However, I could not find any papers on other patient subpopulations.

Please let me know if the paper below (see file) does not answer your question fully, and I will continue looking.
