SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EARLY DETECTION OF TRANSIENT ISCHEMIC ATTACK

摘要

In a transient ischemic attack (TIA) alerting device, a motion sensor (24) is configured to attach to or be worn by a subject. A wearable electronic data processing device (10) includes a speaker (14), a microphone (16), a radio transmitter (26), and an electronic processor (40). The processor is programmed to perform a TIA alerting method including: detecting a TIA-symptomatic gait type by processing subject motion data acquired by the motion sensor; responsive to detecting the TIA-symptomatic gait type, executing a TIA assessment questionnaire (70) by outputting questions using the speaker and receiving spoken responses using the microphone; determining a TIA assessment based at least on the spoken responses to the questions of the TIA assessment questionnaire; and conditional on the TIA assessment indicating a possible TIA, outputting a TIA alert radio signal using the radio transmitter.
