Abstract
A system for determining that a monitored person has experienced an event wherein the event is detrimental to the monitored person. The system comprises a first sensing component for producing a first sensed parameter value representative of a first sensed condition of the monitored person and a second sensing component activated responsive to the first sensed parameter value for producing a second sensed parameter value representative of a second sensed condition. A detecting component receives the first and second sensed parameter values for determining that the monitored person has experienced the event.
