Remote medical device alarm
First Claim
1. A cardiac monitoring and treatment system, comprising:
- a wearable defibrillator worn about a torso of a patient comprising one or more buttons configured to be actuated by the patient to cause the wearable defibrillator to withhold an imminent delivery of a therapy necessitated by a detected cardiac arrhythmia; and
a remote device configured to communicate with the wearable defibrillator, comprisinga touch screen comprising one or more remote response buttons accessible by the patient, wherein the one or more remote response buttons are configured to be actuated by the patient to respond to a notification of the imminent delivery of the therapy necessitated by the detected cardiac arrhythmia,a wireless transceiver for bi-directional wireless communication with the wearable defibrillator, anda processor coupled to the touch screen and the wireless transceiver, the processor programmed to cause the remote device to provide the notification of the imminent delivery of the therapy necessitated by the detected cardiac arrhythmia based on a communication received from the wearable defibrillator via the wireless transceiver,wherein actuation of either the one or more remote response buttons of the remote device or the one or more buttons of the wearable defibrillator causes the wearable defibrillator to withhold the imminent delivery of the therapy necessitated by the detected cardiac arrhythmia.

Abstract
A cardiac monitoring and treatment system includes a wearable defibrillator worn about the torso of a patient and a remote device configured to communicate with the wearable defibrillator. The wearable defibrillator includes one or more buttons configured to be actuated by the patient to cause the wearable defibrillator to withhold an imminent delivery of a therapy necessitated by a detected cardiac arrhythmia. The remote device includes a touch screen including one or more remote response buttons accessible by the patient to respond to a notification of the imminent delivery of the therapy necessitated by the detected cardiac arrhythmia. Actuation of either the one or more remote response buttons of the remote device or the one or more buttons of the wearable defibrillator causes the wearable defibrillator to withhold the imminent delivery of the therapy necessitated by the detected cardiac arrhythmia.

17. A remote device comprising:
-
a wireless transceiver for wirelessly communicating with a wearable defibrillator configured to be worn about a torso of a patient, wherein the wearable defibrillator comprises one or more buttons configured to be actuated by the patient to cause the wearable defibrillator to withhold an imminent delivery of a therapy necessitated by a detected cardiac arrhythmia; a touch screen comprising one or more remote response buttons accessible by the patient, wherein the one or more remote response buttons are configured to be actuated by the patient to respond to a notification of the imminent delivery of the therapy necessitated by the detected cardiac arrhythmia; and a processor coupled to the wireless transceiver, the processor causing the touch screen to provide the notification of the imminent delivery of the therapy based on a communication received from the wearable defibrillator via the wireless transceiver, wherein actuation of either the one or more remote response buttons or the one or more buttons of the wearable defibrillator causes the wearable defibrillator to withhold delivery of the therapy necessitated by the detected cardiac arrhythmia. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
