Abstract:
According to some embodiments, a wearable medical device capable of treating a patient presenting with syncope is provided. The wearable medical device includes a memory storing event profile information, a battery, at least one treatment electrode coupled to the battery, at least one processor coupled to the memory and the at least one treatment electrode, and an event manager executed by the at least one processor. The event manager is configured to detect an event associated with syncope; store, in the memory, data descriptive of the event in association with an indication that the data includes data descriptive of a syncopal event; and address the event.
Abstract:
A system and method for medical premonitory event estimation includes one or more processors to perform operations comprising: acquiring a first set of physiological information of a subject, and a second set of physiological information of the subject received during a second period of time; calculating first and second risk scores associated with estimating a risk of a potential cardiac arrhythmia event for the subject based on applying the first and second sets of physiological information to one or more machine learning classifier models, providing at least the first and second risk scores associated with the potential cardiac arrhythmia event as a time changing series of risk scores, and classifying the first and second risk scores associated with estimating the risk of the potential cardiac arrhythmia event for the subject based on the one or more thresholds.
