Abstract
A wearable cardiac monitoring and treatment device for improved skin interface contact and easy assembly and disassembly includes a garment including an inner surface and an outer surface, ECG sensing electrodes, and at least one stiffener forming a section of the garment in proximity to one or more of the ECG sensing electrodes. The at least one stiffener is configured to resist rotation or pulling away of the one or more of the ECG sensing electrodes from a patient's torso. The device includes therapy electrodes, at least one separate module including a therapy delivery circuit, and a controller. The device includes compartments configured to receive the therapy electrodes and at least one separate module, and retention loops configured to route external wires extending between at least the therapy electrodes and at least one separate module, where the compartments and retention loops are disposed on the outer surface of the garment.
