Abstract

The embodiments herein relate to devices, implementations, and techniques for health monitoring, specifically cardiac arrest monitoring systems. A paramedical equipment locator may receive a periodically sent message configured to identify a location information corresponding to a paramedical equipment and determine whether to select the paramedical equipment based at least in part on the location information.

Claims (20)

1. A cardiac arrest monitoring device, comprising:

a sensor adapted to detect a cardiac rhythm;

an anomaly detection circuit adapted to detect at least one anomaly based on the detected cardiac rhythm;

a self-location acquisition unit for acquiring self-location information;

a paramedical equipment locator adapted to:

receive a periodically sent message configured to identify a location information corresponding to a paramedical equipment,

determine a distance corresponding to the paramedical equipment using at least the received location information, and

determine whether to select the paramedical equipment based at least in part on the determined distance; and

an output unit configured to output the location information of a selected paramedical equipment;

wherein the paramedical equipment locator and the output unit are wearable.

2. A device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the anomaly detection circuit further comprises a comparison circuit adapted to compare the detected cardiac rhythm with preprogrammed data.

3. A device as recited in claim 2 , wherein the preprogrammed data comprises previous cardiac rhythm data of a user of the cardiac monitoring device.

4. A device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the paramedical equipment comprises an automated external defibrillator.

5. A device as recited in claim 1 , further comprising an alarm unit adapted to generate an alarm response to the anomaly detection circuit detecting the anomaly of the cardiac rhythm.

6. A device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the output unit further comprises a video display to plot a location associated with the location information of the selected paramedical equipment on a map.

7. A device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the output unit further comprises a video display to graphically display the detected cardiac rhythm.

8. A device as recited in claim 1 , further comprising;

a transmitter for sending the self location information measured by the self-location acquisition unit.

9. A method as recited in claim 1 , wherein the periodically sent message is sent from a server.

10. A method as recited in claim 1 , wherein the periodically sent message is sent from the paramedical equipment.
