Medical device configured to test for user responsiveness
First Claim
1. A wearable defibrillator comprising:
- at least one treatment electrode;
at least one sensor;
at least one controller connected to the at least one treatment electrode and the at least one sensor;
at least one response mechanism connected to the at least one controller, the at least one response mechanism actuatable by a patient wearing the wearable defibrillator andwherein the at least one controller is configured to receive input from the at least one response mechanism and determine whether the patient wearing the wearable defibrillator actuated the at least one response mechanism based at least in part on the input.

Abstract
A medical device is disclosed that includes one or more treatment electrodes, one or more sensors, and one or more controllers connected to the one or more treatment electrodes and one or more sensors. The medical device also includes one or more response mechanisms connected to the one or more controllers. The one or more controllers are configured to receive input from the one or more response mechanism and are also configured to determine whether a patient wearing the medical device actuated the one or more response mechanisms based, at least in part, on the input received from the one or more response mechanisms. In some disclosed embodiments, the medical device is a wearable defibrillator.

21. A method of testing patient responsiveness of a patient wearing a medical device comprising:
-
sensing via sensors on the medical device, a condition of the patient requiring treatment; providing, upon sensing the condition requiring treatment, a prompt emitted from the medical device that is directed to the patient to elicit a response from the patient; and determining if the patient has provided the response if a response is provided. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
