Abstract
A patient-worn arrhythmia monitoring and treatment device includes a pair of therapy electrodes and at least one pair of sensing electrodes disposed proximate to the skin and configured to continually sense at least one ECG signal of the patient over an extended period of time. The device includes a therapy delivery circuit coupled to the pair of therapy electrodes and configured to deliver one or more therapeutic pulses. A controller coupled to therapy delivery circuit is configured to analyze the at least one ECG signal and detect one or more treatable arrhythmias and cause the therapy delivery circuit to deliver the one or more therapeutic pulses to the patient. At least one of the one or more therapeutic pulses is formed as a biphasic waveform delivering within 15 percent of 360 J of energy to a patient body having a transthoracic impedance from about 20 to about 200 ohms.
