1. A wearable medical device, comprising:
- a garment worn by a subject, the garment comprising one or more electrocardiograph sensing electrodes configured to receive electrocardiograph information from the subject;
at least one of an inductive element and a capacitive element included in at least part of the garment; and
a controller configured to determine a confidence level of the electrocardiograph information received from the one or more electrocardiograph sensing electrodes based on at least one of a change in an inductance of the inductive element and a change in a capacitance of the capacitive element, the confidence level indicating whether the one or more electrocardiograph sensing electrodes are properly positioned on the subject.
