Abstract: A wearable medical device includes a garment configured to be worn about a torso of a patient, at least two sensors for detecting a characteristic of a CPR therapy, an output device, and a processor. The at least two sensors are positioned at locations at the anterior surface of the patient's chest chosen to identify a characteristic of a center of the patient's chest. The processor is configured for processing information from the at least two sensors and providing, to the output device, information about the CPR therapy. The processing includes determining information about a geometry defined by the at least two sensors.
