Abstract: A personal impact monitoring system is described herein comprising a monitoring station that receives impact events sent from personal impact monitors using a monitoring station receiver. The impact events which specify impact parameters associated with the impact events are stored in a data storage location associated with the monitoring station. Software operating on the operating station is configured to receive the impact events from the data storage location and to perform calculations based on the impact events to identify notable impact events.

Abstract: A defibrillation circuit generates a defibrillation pulse and includes a patient-parameter compensator that causes the pulse to have a predetermined characteristic regardless of the value of a patient parameter. For example, the circuit can generate defibrillation pulses that have a desired shape, decay rate, voltage level, current level, and/or energy level regardless of the patient impedance. Consequently, a defibrillator that includes the circuit is likely to be more effective than prior defibrillators in restoring normal heart rhythms to patients having an atypical value for a parameter such as impedance.
