ADHERENT DEVICE FOR CARDIAC RHYTHM MANAGEMENT

摘要

An adherent device to monitor and treat a patient comprises an adhesive patch to adhere to a skin of the patient. At least two electrodes are connected to the patch and capable of electrically coupling to the patient. Sensor circuitry is coupled to the at least two electrodes and configured to measure at least two of an electrocardiogram signal of the patient, a respiration signal of the patient or an activity signal of the patient. Therapy circuitry is coupled to the at least two electrodes and configured to deliver a high-energy shock therapy for cardioversion and/or defibrillation. A processor system comprising a tangible medium and coupled to the sensor circuitry and therapy circuitry, the processor is configured to generate a treatment signal to deliver the high-energy shock therapy in response to the at least two of the electrocardiogram signal, the respiration signal or the activity signal.
