WEARABLE MEDICAL TREATMENT DEVICE
First Claim
1. A wearable treatment device for treatment of a subject, comprising:
- a cardiac sensing electrode configured to be positioned outside a body of the subject and to detect cardiac information of the subject;
a treatment electrode configured to be positioned outside the body of the subject and to apply treatment to the subject;
a user interface configured to receive quality of life information from the subject;
a sensor configured to be positioned outside the body of the subject and to detect subject activity and wellness information indicative of a general wellness of the subject;
a controller communicatively coupled to the cardiac sensing electrode, the treatment electrode, the user interface, and the sensor, the controller configured to receive the detected cardiac information, the quality of life information, and the detected subject activity and wellness information, to determine that treatment is to be applied to the body of the subject based upon the detected cardiac information, and to adjust the treatment based on at least one of the detected subject activity and wellness information and the quality of life information; and
an alarm module configured to provide an alarm after the cardiac information is detected and before the treatment is applied to the body of the subject.

Abstract
A wearable treatment device includes a cardiac sensing electrode, a treatment electrode, a user interface, and a sensor. The cardiac sensing electrode detects cardiac information, and the treatment electrode applies treatment to a subject. The user interface receives quality of life information from the subject, and the sensor detects subject activity and wellness information. A controller coupled with the cardiac sensing electrode, the treatment electrode, the user interface, and the sensor receives the detected cardiac information, the quality of life information, and the detected subject activity and wellness information, and determines that treatment is to be applied to the body of the subject based upon the detected cardiac information. The controller can adjust the treatment based on at least one of the detected subject activity and wellness information and the quality of life information.
