Wearable Defibrillator

The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing, 2002
Technological advances have increased life expectancy and improved quality of life for patients with heart disease. A new device, called the wearable defibrillator, is designed to provide monitoring and defibrillation capability for patients who have had an infarct and those awaiting heart transplantation.

Wearability in wearable computers

2008 12th IEEE International Symposium on Wearable Computers, 2008
Wearability, or the relationship between a worn technology and the ability or desire of the user to wear it, is a key element in the successful design of wearable technologies. Wearability addresses the physical, cognitive, and emotional state of the user, and the impact of the wearable technology on the user's homeostasis in each area.

Assessing the Wearability of Wearable Computers

2006 10th IEEE International Symposium on Wearable Computers, 2006
In terms of mounting a computer on the body, the computer's weight, size, shape, placement and method of attachment can elicit a number of effects. Inappropriate design may mean that the wearer is unable to perform specific tasks or achieve goals.

Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillators

Cardiology in Review, 2016
The use of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) has favorably impacted the prevention and treatment of sudden cardiac death (SCD) associated with ventricular arrhythmias. However, there are situations where an ICD cannot be immediately implanted, even though the patient is at high risk for SCD.

From Wearable Ultrafiltration Device to Wearable Artificial Kidney

2011
Since the inception of hemodialysis as a treatment for patients with chronic kidney disease, there have been designs created for portable, wearable or implantable devices to improve both quality of therapy delivered and patient quality of life.We conducted a pilot proof- of- concept study in 8 stable adult hemodialysis patients using a wearable ...
