Abstract: In one example, an ambulatory medical device is provided. The ambulatory medical device includes a plurality of subsystems, at least one sensor configured to acquire data descriptive of a patient, a user interface and at least one processor coupled to the at least one sensor and the user interface. The at least one processor is configured to identify subsystem status information descriptive of an operational status of each subsystem of the plurality of subsystems and to provide a device health report for the ambulatory medical device via the user interface, the device health report being based on the operational status of each subsystem.

Abstract: An external medical device is provided which is configured to provide a user with access to one or more training modules. The external medical device includes one or more electrodes configured to detect a cardiac activity of a patient, an audio and/or visual output, and a controller coupled to the audio and/or visual output. The controller is configured to: detect at least one of a predetermined event and a device use pattern; and responsive to detecting the at least one of the predetermined event and the device use pattern, provide the patient access to one or more training modules relating to a use or a configuration of the external medical device via the audio and/or visual output. The device can also include a user interface configured to provide access to at least one training module according to a schedule of training modules for the patient.

Abstract: An ambulatory medical device includes a sensor configured to acquire a signal indicative of a physiological condition of a patient, a controller operatively coupled to the sensor and configured to monitor the physiological signal, and to perform a diagnostic test, and a remote access manager operatively coupled to the controller and configured to monitor for a command from a remote system to perform the diagnostic test, and to cause the controller to perform the diagnostic test in response to the command. In the device, the remote access manager may be further configured to transmit data representing an operational status of the ambulatory medical device to the remote system. The operational status of the controller may result from performing the diagnostic test. The remote access manager may be further configured to send the data representing the operational status of the ambulatory medical device in real time or substantially in real time.

Abstract: An external medical device includes monitoring circuitry configured to monitor a cardiac condition of a patient using the external medical device; and a controller configured to: receive at least one of patient input and non-patient user input of a patient's ability; determine a patient interaction mode of the external medical device based on the at least one of the patient input and the non-patient user input; and adapt the patient interaction mode of the external medical device over time based on the at least one of the patient input and the non-patient user input.
