Method and apparatus for performing automatic cardiac diagnosis. The apparatuses described herein may be handheld devices which enables self-recording of cardiac signals by the patient, including entering relevant data by patients regarding their cardiac history, including cardiac disease risk factors, and/or current conditions and symptoms. Based on recorded cardiac signals, cardiac risk factors and the current symptoms, the apparatus may calculates a cardiac risk score and may provide simplified diagnostic information and actionable instructions to the patient.

Various embodiments provide systems and methods for detecting tampering with a monitoring device using biometric data.

A method for evaluating a posture of a rider riding a bicycle includes: continuously receiving a plurality of sensor datasets, each of the sensor datasets being associated with a specific time instance and includes data generated by an inertial measurement set and an electrical signal sensor set; determining a plurality of top time instances and a plurality of bottom time instances, and establishing a number of riding periods based on the plurality of top time instances and the plurality of bottom time instances; and for each of the riding periods, generating an evaluation result with respect to a number of sensor datasets received within the riding period.

A device and system for promoting more recuperative sleep by regulating a user's body temperature. This may be done by using a series of devices that measure information about the user both while they are awake and while they are asleep, communicate that information to a processing unit, and create an ideal body temperature range profile based on that information. A temperature stimulus device may ensure that the core body temperature of the user stays substantially within the ideal body temperature range. By keeping the core body temperature of the user within the calculated range, the device and system will ensure deeper, and therefore more recuperative, sleep.

Systems and methods are provided for evaluating infranodal pacing is applied to a patient. Electrocardiogram (ECG) data representing the pacing is obtained from a set of electrodes as an ECG lead. A predictor value representing a frequency content a portion of the ECG lead is extracted. A fitness parameter is determined for the pacing from at least the predictor value. The fitness parameter represents a likelihood that the applied infranodal pacing will induce left ventricular dysfunction in the patient. The fitness parameter is displayed to a user at an associated display.
