Patient-wearable device for detecting a subpulse of a patient and related systems, methods and computer program products

A system, comprising:

• a first patient-wearable device that is adapted to attach to a first location on a body of a patient, the first patient-wearable device comprising a first housing having a first protruding portion that is pressed into a skin surface at the first location on the body of the patient when the first patient-wearable device is attached thereto, the first housing enclosing:
• a first printed circuit board (PCB);
• a first motion sensor that is connected to the first PCB at a position immediately above the first protruding portion of the first housing and in physical contact therewith;
• and
• a first processing unit that is connected to the first motion sensor and configured to transmit first motion sensor data generated by the first motion sensor to a computing device;
• and
• the computing device, comprising:
• a communication interface that is configured to receive the first motion sensor data transmitted by the first processing unit of the first patient-wearable device;
• and
• a second processing unit that is configured to process at least the first motion sensor data to determine a pulse condition of the patient and cause a user-perceptible indication of the pulse condition to be generated for presentation to a user.
