1. A wearable monitoring device comprising:
- a garment to hold an electrode and be worn about a subject, the garment including an orientation circuit, at least a portion of the orientation circuit being integrated into the garment; and
at least one processor operatively coupled to the orientation circuit, the at least one processor configured to measure at least one parameter associated with the orientation circuit and determine whether a conductive surface of the electrode is oriented towards the subject or whether the conductive surface of the electrode is oriented away from the subject based on the at least one parameter.

17. A garment to be worn about a subject comprising:
-
a pocket to hold an electrode; an orientation circuit included in the pocket, the orientation circuit configured to provide an indication of an orientation of the electrode relative to the pocket wherein the indication comprises an indication of whether the electrode is positioned in the pocket with a conductive surface of the electrode oriented towards the subject or away from the subject, at least a portion of the orientation circuit being integrated into the pocket; and at least one conductive material that provides an electrical path to current flowing through the orientation circuit, wherein the at least one conductive material is configured to couple the orientation circuit to at least one processor. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
