Zusammenfassung:A system including a body worn audio communication device which can provide bystanders with verbal instructions in the event of a catastrophic personal health emergency. This is of particular use in situations that leave a patient unconscious, such as the onset of sudden cardiac arrest. This device is in communication with a system that provides it with an indication of personal health, which can be as basic as "ok" or "not ok". This indication may be manually activated, or may include automated monitoring of one or more patient attributes coupled with automated determination of the patient's state of health.
