Abstract: A wearable therapeutic device includes an external defibrillator configured to monitor electrical heart activity of a patient and a garment housing a first therapy electrode and a second therapy electrode. The first and second therapy electrodes are electrically coupled to the defibrillator. The garment releasably receives a plurality of replaceable receptacles configured to store a conductive gel in locations proximate to the therapy electrodes. A plurality of gas cartridges each disposed on one of the plurality of replaceable receptacles are configured to control a release of the stored conductive gel of the associated one of the plurality of replaceable receptacles by igniting. A plurality of conductive gel firing circuits each associated with and separate from each of the plurality of replaceable receptacles are configured to be operatively coupled to the gas cartridge to control the release of the stored conductive gel upon information being communicated from the external defibrillator.

Abstract: A wearable monitoring and therapeutic device includes at least two sensing electrodes. Each sensing electrode includes a metallic surface integrated in a garment. The device includes at least two therapy electrodes. Each of the at least two therapy electrodes includes a receptacle, and each receptacle includes at least one dose of conductive fluid. The device includes the garment. The garment includes a fabric that is stretchable and that is breathable and/or moisture wicking, and conductive wiring configured to at least partially electrically connect that at least two sensing electrodes to at least one defibrillator component. The device includes the at least one defibrillator component. The at least two therapy electrodes are configured to provide an electric shock to the subject. Prior to the application of the electric shock, each receptacle is configured to release the conductive fluid from the receptacle.

Abstract: A wearable monitoring and therapeutic device includes at least two sensing electrodes, including at least one of conductive thread sewn into a garment and/or a metallic surface sewn into the garment. The device includes at least two therapy electrodes and the garment, wherein the garment is configured to be worn about a torso of a subject. The garment includes a breathable and stretchable fabric, an elastic material, and a loose material. The device includes at least one defibrillator component including a power source, a conductive wiring configured to stretch to accommodate the subject's chest size and enhance comfort and couple any of the at least two therapy electrodes and the at least two sensing electrodes to the at least one defibrillator component, an alarm module operatively coupled to the at least one defibrillator component, and one or more response buttons operatively coupled to that at least one defibrillator component.
