Abstract: A wearable defibrillator for use in monitoring patient movement and cardiac activity and treating a patient includes a garment configured to be worn by the patient, treatment electrodes configured to apply an electric current to the patient, and an alarm module configured to provide audio, visual, and haptic notifications. The notifications are configured to indicate that an electric current will be administered imminently and prompt the patient to provide a response input. The wearable defibrillator includes a motion sensor configured to detect motion and body position of a patient, and a controller in electrical communication with the alarm module and the motion sensor. The controller is configured to monitor for the response input after the prompt, determine, based on the detected motion and body position, whether the patient is sleeping, and cause a change in one or more characteristics of the prompt on determining that the patient is sleeping.

Abstract: A system for configuring an ambulatory medical device includes a medical device configured to monitor a patient for an occurrence of one or more cardiac events, and a remote computing device. The remote computing device is configured to receive threshold values related to operation of the medical device from, for example, a physician, the threshold values identifying conditions indicative of an occurrence of a cardiac event. The remote computing device can query a master lookup table to determine a lookup code associated with the received threshold values and encode a key including the lookup code. Upon activation of the medical device, the remote computing device can establish a communication link with the medical device and transmit the encoded key to the medical device. The medical device can decode the lookup code, identify the threshold values on a local lookup table, and operate according to the identified threshold values.

Abstract: According to at least one example, an ambulatory medical device is provided. The device includes a plurality of electrodes disposed at spaced apart positions about a patient's body and a control unit. The control unit includes a sensor interface, a memory and a processor. The sensor interface is coupled to the plurality of electrodes and configured to receive a first ECG signal from a first pairing of the plurality of electrodes and to receive a second ECG signal from a second pairing of the plurality of electrodes. The memory stores information indicating a preferred pairing, the preferred pairing being either the first pairing or the second pairing. The processor is coupled to the sensor interface and the memory and is configured to resolve conflicts between interpretations of first ECG signal and the second ECG signal in favor of the preferred pairing.

The notifications are configured to indicate that an electric current will be administered imminently, and prompt the patient to provide a response input. The wearable defibrillator includes a motion sensor configured to detect motion and a lack of motion of the patient, and a controller in electrical communication with the alarm module and the motion sensor. The controller is configured to monitor for the response input, cause administration of the electric current to be delayed or cancelled if the response input is received and motion of the patient is detected, and cause administration of the electric current to be delivered if no response input from the patient is received and a lack of motion is detected.

Abstract: System and methods for providing a patient with arrhythmia treatment are described. For example, a system includes an arrhythmia monitoring and treatment assembly configured to be worn on the torso of the patient. The assembly has a housing discreetly extending from a skin surface of the patient. The assembly is configured to provide therapy on detecting one or more arrhythmia conditions of the patient. A first at least one user response button is disposed on the assembly at a first location on the torso concealed under clothing, and a second at least one user response button is configured to be worn on a second location of the patient's body, a location other than the torso that is accessible to the patient. The system suspends an impending therapy upon receiving a user input from either one of the first or second at least one user response buttons.

Abstract: An arrhythmia monitoring device includes a plurality of pairs of ECG sensing electrodes disposed in a garment configured to be worn about a torso of a patient, and signal acquisition circuit configured to be electrically coupled to the plurality pairs of ECG sensing electrodes. The device includes a processor in communication with the signal acquisition circuit configured to execute a selection process comprising identifying a quality of each of a plurality of ECG signals, ranking the signals based on the identified quality, and selecting at least two ECG signals to monitor having highest quality. The processor is configured to re-execute the selection process following an event including at least one of the garment shifting on the torso, the garment being repositioned on the torso, and the garment being removed and returned to the torso of the patient, and monitor the selected at least two ECG signals for a cardiac arrhythmia.
