    摘要: A wearable cardiac therapeutic device includes a plurality of ECG sensing electrodes configured to sense ECG signals regarding a cardiac function of a patient; a plurality of therapy electrodes configured to deliver transcutaneous defibrillation shocks or transcutaneous pacing pulses to the patient's heart; and a support garment configured to support and hold the plurality of ECG sensing electrodes and the plurality of therapy electrodes against the patient's body. The support garment includes one or more features for improving and enhancing the patient's experience in wearing the support garment with respect to wearability, comfort, aesthetics, and assembly and usage of the device.

    摘要: A wearable cardiac therapeutic device includes at least one therapy electrode configured to deliver therapeutic electrical pulses to a patient's heart; and a support garment including at least one support pocket for supporting the at least one therapy electrode including a mesh interface including: a first side including hydrophobic fiber(s) proximate to electrically conductive fluid deployment opening(s) on the therapy electrode; a second side including hydrophilic fiber(s) proximate to the patient's skin; and conductive fiber(s) and/or conductive particles configured to be interspersed with the hydrophobic fiber(s) and hydrophilic fiber(s) such that the conductive fiber(s) and/or conductive particles conduct therapeutic electrical current from the therapy electrode to the patient's skin, wherein the mesh interface is configured to transfer electrically conductive fluid dispersed from one or more electrically conductive fluid reservoirs disposed on the therapy electrode towards the patient's skin.
