Abstract

Processing an LLM call is simple and slow, but fast recovery alerts are essential for real-time ECG decision support. We introduce SafePulse, a system in which an uncut alarm priority contract is implemented: time constraints allow the LLM to interpret and accumulate asynchronously, but ECG alerts are transmitted synchronously via a dependent optical path. By separating each device into an individual SessionActor, the risk of shared security state at the application layer is reduced. On MIT-BIH records 100–109 the detector achieved Se = 98.6% and PPV = 98.7%. In an injected-fault matrix of 16 cells (4 fault profiles × 4 concurrency tiers, 1000 trials/cell), event-level deterministic streams showed tuple mismatch count 0, with Δalerts = 0 and Δp95/p99/p999 = 0.0 μs. This study integrates LLM enrichment in a safety-constrained monitoring pipeline and demonstrates its architecture and validation mode. Extension code, figures, and complete results are provided as Electronic Supplementary Material.
