An electrocardiogram recording device can include a housing, a clip, a modem, and an antenna. The housing can contain RF shielding, which can be arranged to minimize RF signal transmissions in one direction while not limiting RF signal transmission in an opposite direction. The clip can be attached to the housing. An antenna can be integrated within the clip. The modem can be a cellular data modem.

A radio frequency (RF) front end device has a signal traveling from a first antenna to a second antenna in an uplink path and a signal traveling from a third antenna to a fourth antenna in a downlink path. The device is under the control of automatic on/off controller (AOOC) which upon receiving a signal indication from a receive signal detector and amplifier (RSDA) turns on the operations of power amplifier (PA) and simultaneously turns off a low noise amplifier (LNA). This LNA is turned off when the power amplifier is turned on to prevent uplink path and downlink path forming a feedback loop which would result in oscillation, noise and interference.

A wearable medical monitoring device includes a plurality of ECG electrodes configured to receive an ECG signal when the wearable medical monitoring device is worn by a patient, and a monitor coupled to the plurality of ECG electrodes. The monitor is configured to detect an impending cardiac event based on the received ECG signal of the patient. The device includes at least one processor configured to execute a plurality of instructions to implement an update manager configured to receive a software update corresponding to the at least one software module for the monitor, determine an event estimation of risk score for a predetermined period of time, cause an installation of the update when the event estimation of risk score indicates a low likelihood of an impending cardiac event, and cause a delay in the installation when the event estimation of risk score indicates a high likelihood of impending cardiac event.

A portable electrocardiographic device configured to measure an electrocardiographic waveform using a plurality of types of lead systems includes an electrode unit configured to be brought into contact with a subject's body and measure an electrocardiographic waveform, an analysis unit configured to analyze the electrocardiographic waveform measured by the electrode unit in accordance with a lead system at a time of measurement of the electrocardiographic waveform, a storage unit configured to store the electrocardiographic waveform measured at the electrode unit, the lead system, and an analysis result of the electrocardiographic waveform analyzed by the analysis unit in association with one another, and a remeasurement facilitating unit configured to prompt a user, when the analysis result or a state of the measured electrocardiographic waveform satisfies a predetermined condition, for remeasurement in a predetermined lead system different from the lead system at the time of the measurement of the electrocardiographic waveform.

A smart hardware security engine using biometric features and hardware-specific features is provided. The smart security engine can combine one or more entropy sources, including individually distinguishable biometric features, and hardware-specific features to perform secret key generation for user registration and authentication. Such hybrid signatures may be distinct from person-to-person (e.g., due to the biometric features) and from device-to-device (e.g., due to the hardware-specific features) while varying over time. Thus, embodiments described herein can be used for personal device authentication as well as secret random key generation, significantly reducing the scope of an attack.

An electronic device, such as a watch, has a housing to which a carrier is attached. The carrier has a first surface interior to the electronic device, and a second surface exterior to the electronic device. A set of electrodes is deposited on the exterior surface of the carrier. An additional electrode is operable to be contacted by a finger of a user of the electronic device while the first electrode is positioned against skin of the user. The additional electrode may be positioned on a user-rotatable crown of the electronic device, on a button of the electronic device, or on another surface of the housing of the electronic device. A processor of the electronic device is operable to determine a biological parameter of the user based on voltages at the electrodes. The biological parameter may be an electrocardiogram.
