    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for providing patient wear compliance information are provided. For example, a medical device includes a plurality of electrodes configured to be continuously coupled externally to a patient and to monitor electrical activity on the skin of the patient. The system also includes at least one motion sensor configured to generate a motion signal based upon movement of the patient. The system further includes a processor configured to receive an electrical signal based on the monitored electrical activity, record a wear onset event based on the electrical signal and the motion signal, record a wear offset event based on one or more of the electrical signal and the motion signal indicating that the patient is not wearing the medical device, and output a graphical representation including information regarding the patient's wear compliance based on the recorded wear onset event and the recorded wear offset event.

    Abstract: A system includes an ambulatory medical device and a server. The ambulatory medical device comprises: a digital signal processing module configured to: detect an abnormal rhythm from an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal of a patient using a first signal processing routine; and generate a first flag indicating an abnormal rhythm is detected; and a noise detector module configured to: receive the ECG signal from the digital signal processing module; execute a second signal processing routine to classify the abnormal rhythm as one of an arrhythmia event and a noise event; and, if the abnormal rhythm is classified as a noise event, initiate a preconfirmation period during which the noise detector module continues to evaluate the abnormal rhythm and classify the abnormal rhythm as one of an arrhythmia event and a noise event using the second signal processing routine; and generate a second flag indicating the start of the preconfirmation period; and a server configured to: receive the ECG signal, the first flag indicating the abnormal rhythm, and the second flag indicating the start of the preconfirmation period; and provide a visual indication of the preconfirmation period.
