Electrocardiogram analysis apparatus and electrocardiogram system
An electrocardiogram analysis apparatus includes: an electrocardiogram signal inputting section to which electrocardiogram signals of measurement electrodes attached to a subject are input; a mistaken attachment determining section which, by using the input electrocardiogram signals, determines whether the measurement electrodes are mistakenly attached or not; an outputting section which, if it is determined that the measurement electrodes are mistakenly attached, notifies of mistaken attachment of the measurement electrodes; and an electrocardiogram data storing section which, in a case where there is an input indicative of confirmation of the notification, stores information indicating that the measurement electrodes have been checked, together with the input electrocardiogram signals, and, in a case where there is not an input indicative of confirmation of the notification, stores information indicating that the measurement electrodes have not been checked, together with the input electrocardiogram signals.
SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUS FOR EXTERNAL CARDIAC PACING
Systems and methods for cardiac pacing during a procedure are disclosed and may include an external pulse generator (EPG) for connecting to a lead. A remote-control module (RCM) wirelessly connected to the EPG may include user inputs to control the EPG. A central processing unit (CPU) with a memory unit for storing code and a processor for executing the code may be included where the CPU is connected to the EPG and RCM. The code may control the EPG in response to user input from the RCM. The CPU may be disposed in the EPG or the RCM, or an interface module (IM) configured to communicate between an otherwise conventional EPG and the RCM. The executable code may perform a continuity test (CT) routine, a capture check (CC) routine, rapid pacing (RP) routine, and/or a back-up pacing (BP) routine, in response to user input from the RCM.
Patient assurance system and method
In one example, an ambulatory medical device is provided. The ambulatory medical device includes a plurality of subsystems, at least one sensor configured to acquire data descriptive of a patient, a user interface and at least one processor coupled to the at least one sensor and the user interface. The at least one processor is configured to identify subsystem status information descriptive of an operational status of each subsystem of the plurality of subsystems and to provide a device health report for the ambulatory medical device via the user interface, the device health report being based on the operational status of each subsystem.

Patient-Assisted Alarm System
In the present invention, a system and associated method is provided for monitoring vital parameters of a patient. The monitoring system includes sensors disposed on the patient and operably connected to a monitor. The parameters that are sensed by the sensors are transmitted to the monitor and compared with alarm thresholds and operational criteria stored within the monitor. When an alarm condition is sensed by the system, the system can actively solicit patient assistance in the confirmation of the alarm condition based on a set of reactive inputs stored within the system to enable medical personnel to appropriately respond to clinically relevant sensed alarm condition(s).
WEARABLE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MEASURING BIOMETRIC INFORMATION
A wearable device is provided. The wearable device includes a first sensor having a plurality of electrodes, and at least one processor electrically connected to the first sensor. The at least one processor may obtain a first electrocardiogram signal by using a first sensor in a state where the wearable device is worn on a user's body, obtain an electromyogram signal from the first electrocardiogram signal, obtain a second electrocardiogram signal by filtering the electromyogram signal from the first electrocardiogram signal, determine the wearing state of the wearable device on the basis of the intensity of the electromyogram signal and the quality of the second electrocardiogram signal, and output a guide on the wearing state on the basis of a determination result.
