System and method for adapting alarms in a wearable medical device
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- an ambulatory medical device comprisingat least one sensor configured to acquire electrocardiogram (ECG) signals from a patient;
a network interface configured to communicate wirelessly with an electronic device distinct from the ambulatory medical device;
a user interface;
a memory storing alarm information specifying one or more alarms and one or more conduits through which the one or more alarms are to be provided; and
at least one processor coupled to the memory, the network interface, the user interface, and the at least one sensor and configured tomonitor ECG data based on the ECG signals to detect a cardiac abnormality in the patientidentify, based on the alarm information, an alarm of the one or more alarms triggered by the cardiac abnormality;
adapt, based on the alarm information, the alarm to output via at least one conduit of the one or more conduits, the one or more conduits comprisingthe network interface configured to communicate wirelessly with the electronic device, andthe user interface of the ambulatory medical device; and
the electronic device, the electronic device being configured to receive the alarm; and
issue the alarm.

Abstract
According to another example, a wearable medical device controller is provided. The device controller includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to determine a correlation between a phenomenon identifiable by the wearable medical device controller and at least one response pattern associated with a patient and store, responsive to detecting the correlation, an adaptation path to address the at least one response pattern, the adaptation path specifying an adaptation of at least one characteristic of an alarm. The at least one response pattern may include a plurality of response patterns and the adaptation path may reflect adaptations made to address at least some of the plurality of response patterns.

18. A method of adapting alarms in an ambulatory medical device, comprising:
-
storing, in a memory of the ambulatory medical device, alarm information specifying one or more alarms and one or more conduits through which the one or more alarms are to be provided; acquiring electrocardiogram (ECG) signals from a patient coupled to the ambulatory medical device; monitoring ECG data based on the ECG signals to detect a cardiac abnormality in the patient; identifying, based on the alarm information stored in the memory of the ambulatory medical device, an alarm of the one or more alarms triggered by the cardiac abnormality; adapting, based on the alarm information stored in the memory of the ambulatory medical device, the alarm to output via at least one conduit of the one or more conduits, the one or more conduits comprising a network interface configured to communicate wirelessly with an electronic device and a user interface of the ambulatory medical device; receiving the alarm at the electronic device via the network interface of the ambulatory medical device; and issuing the alarm via the electronic device. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
