Wearable Apparatus For ECG Signal Acquisition
Methods, apparatuses and wearable devices for measuring an ECG signal for a user wearing a wearable device includes when the ECG signal is measured in a first mode, receiving the ECG signal by an ECG sensor from a closed circuit formed by a first ECG sensor electrode and a second ECG sensor electrode, in which the wearable device includes a main body detachable to the wearable device, a connecting portion, and electrode patches, and the main body includes the ECG sensor, the first ECG sensor electrode, and the second ECG sensor electrode, and when the ECG signal is measured in a second mode, receiving the ECG signal by the ECG sensor from a closed circuit formed by electrodes of the electrode patches, in which the ECG sensor is in the main body and the main body is connected to the electrode patches.
Electrocardiogram identification
A defibrillating system includes a processor coupled to a memory. The processor and the memory are configured to identify a treatment event associated with treatment of a victim with the defibrillating system, and transmit a representation of a portion of an ECG signal associated with the identified treatment event. In some cases, the processor and the memory are configured to identify the portion of the ECG signal associated with the identified treatment event. In some cases, the portion of the ECG signal is of a predetermined length of time having a start time and an end time based on a time associated with the identified treatment event.
EXTENDED WEAR ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHY AND PHYSIOLOGICAL SENSOR MONITOR
An extended wear electrocardiography patch is provided. An integrated flexible circuit includes a pair of circuit traces that each originate within one end. A pair of electrocardiographic electrodes are each electrically coupled to one of the circuit traces. A layer of adhesive is applied on a contact surface of the flexible circuit and includes an opening on each end. Conductive gel is provided in each of the openings of the adhesive layer and is in electrical contact with the electrocardiographic electrodes. A non-conductive receptacle is adhered on one end of an outward surface of the flexible circuit and is operable to removably receive an electrocardiography monitor. The non-conductive receptacle includes electrode terminals aligned to electrically interface the circuit traces to the electrocardiography monitor. A battery is affixed to the outward surface of the flexible circuit and electrically interfaced via battery leads to a pair of electrical pads.
ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHY PATCH
An electrocardiography patch is provided. A backing includes two rounded ends connected by a middle section that is narrower than the two rounded ends. An electrode is positioned on a contact surface of the backing on each rounded end. A circuit trace is electrically coupled to each of the electrodes. A battery is positioned on an outer surface of the backing, opposite the contact surface, on one of the rounded ends.

METHODS, DEVICES AND SYSTEMS FOR IDENTIFYING FALSE R-R INTERVALS AND FALSE ARRHYTHMIA DETECTIONS DUE TO R-WAVE UNDERSENSING OR INTERMITTENT AV CONDUCTION BLOCK
Described herein are methods, devices, and systems for identifying false R-R intervals, and false arrhythmia detections, resulting from R-wave undersensing or intermittent AV conduction block. Each of one or more of the R-R intervals is classified as being a false R-R interval in response to a duration the R-R interval being greater than a first specific threshold, and the duration the R-R interval being within a second specified threshold of being an integer multiple of at least X other R-R intervals for which information is obtained, wherein the integer multiple is at least 2, and wherein X is a specified integer that is 1 or greater. When performed for R-R intervals in a window leading up to a detection of a potential arrhythmic episode, results of the classifying can be used to determine whether the potential arrhythmic episode was a false positive detection.
