Abstract
An external wearable medical device includes a plurality of electrocardiogram (ECG) sensors, at least one accelerometer configured to be disposed on a patient, and at least one processor operatively coupled plurality of ECG sensors and the at least one accelerometer. The at least one processor is configured to receive an ECG signal from the plurality of ECG sensors, receive patient activity data from the at least one accelerometer, and detect, based on the patient activity data from the at least one accelerometer, data indicative of an impending syncope event. The at least one processor is configured to issue a notification of the impending syncope event, and store in a memory during a first time period data comprising the ECG signal in association with information descriptive of impending syncope event, and transmit to a remote server during a second time period the stored data for analysis at the remote server.
