Adverse Events (AEs) were defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject during the study that in the opinion of the investigator was at least possibly related to use of the ASSURE system. The Per Protocol cohort (n=129) included all subjects in the Intent-to-Treat cohort except one who was found to be ineligible soon after enrollment and immediately withdrawn. This subject was also excluded from the Safety cohort (n=129) because the subject did not wear the WCD for at least two hours.
