Patent ID: 11553843

Abstract:
A system monitors an individual for conditions indicating a possibility of occurrence of irregular heart events. A database includes a plurality of combinations of at least a first signature and a second signature. A first portion of the plurality of combinations is associated with a normal heartbeat and a second portion of the plurality of combinations is associated with an irregular heart event. A wearable heart monitor that is worn on a body of the patient includes a heart sensor for generating a heart signal responsive to monitoring a beating of a heart of the individual. The monitor further includes a processor for receiving the heart signal from the heart sensor. The processor is configured to analyze the heart signal using a plurality of different processes. Each of the plurality of different processes generates at least one of the first signature and the second signature. The plurality of different processes provide a unique combination including at least the first signature and the second signature for the generated heart signal. The processor compares the unique combination with the plurality of combinations in the database, locates a combination of the plurality of combinations that substantially matches the unique combination and generates a first indication if the unique combination substantially matches one of the first portion of the plurality of combinations and a second indication if the unique combination substantially matches one of the second portion of the plurality of combinations.
