Embodiment Construction

[0071] As already mentioned, the present description is in relation to a wearable cardioverter-defibrillator (WCD) system, a storage medium for storing a program and a method. Embodiments are now described in more detail.

[0072] A wearable cardioverter-defibrillator (WCD) system made according to an embodiment has a number of components. These elements may be provided individually as modules that can be interconnected, or may be combined with other elements or the like.

[0073] An element of a WCD system may be a support structure configured to be worn by a patient. The support structure may be any structure suitable for wearing, such as a harness, a vest, a half-vest - for example on the left side of the torso, which positions the electrodes on the opposite side of the heart, one or more straps, which are configured horizontally or Possibly worn vertically over the shoulder, another garment, etc. The support structure may be implemented as a single element or as a plura...

Abstract

A WCD system is configured to exchange data with access equipment different from the WCD system wirelessly, and the access equipment includes a near field communication (NFC) reader, a peripheral processor and an access wireless communication module (AWCM).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a cardioverter-defibrillator (WCD) system, in particular to a wearable cardioverter-defibrillator (WCD) system. Background technique [0002] When people have certain types of heart arrhythmias, the result can be reduced blood flow to various parts of the body. Some arrhythmias may even lead to sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). SCA can cause death very quickly, for example within 10 minutes, unless temporary treatment is given. [0003] Some people have an increased risk of SCA. Those at high risk include those who have had a heart attack or a previous episode of SCA. These individuals are often advised to receive an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). The ICD is surgically implanted in the chest and continuously monitors the patient's electrocardiogram (ECG). An ICD delivers an electrical shock through the heart if certain types of arrhythmias are detected. [0004] These individuals are sometimes given a we...
