Embodiments describe a method of determining etiology of undiagnosed events comprising monitoring electrocardiogram signals and blood pressure of a patient via a medical device, capturing one or more of an ECG segment and a BP reading in response to a triggering event, classifying one or more of the ECG segment and BP reading as normal or abnormal, and determining etiology of undiagnosed symptomatic events based on the classification. Embodiments further describe a medical device comprising sensors for monitoring ECG signals and BP of a patient, circuitry for capturing one or more of ECG segments and BP readings of a patient in response to a triggering event, and a processor for communicating one of more of captured ECG segments and captured BP readings to a remote monitoring center directly or indirectly where the captured ECG segments and captured BP readings are classified as normal or abnormal. 1. A method of determining etiology of undiagnosed events , the method comprising:monitoring electrocardiogram (ECG) signals and blood pressure (BP) of a patient via a medical device;capturing one or more of an ECG segment and a BP reading in response to a triggering event;classifying one or more of the ECG segment and BP reading as normal or abnormal; anddetermining etiology of undiagnosed symptomatic events based on the classification of the ECG segment and/or BP reading.2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the medical device is non-invasive.3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the medical device includes an adherent patch and a blood pressure cuff.4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ECG segment and/or BP reading captured includes one or more of prospectively captured ECG segments claim 1 , prospectively captured BP readings claim 1 , recently captured ECG segments claim 1 , and recently captured BP readings.5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the triggering event is one or more of a patient triggered event and an automatically triggered event.6. The method of claim 5 , ...
