System and methods for clinical effects mapping for directional stimulation leads
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- displaying, by a computer processor and on a display coupled to the computer processor, a two-dimensional representation of an arrangement of electrodes of a lead having one or more segmented electrodes;
displaying, by the computer processor and on the display, a three-dimensional clinical effects map having a first axis, a second axis, and a third axis, wherein the first axis is perpendicular to the second and third axes, wherein the first axis and second axis of the clinical effects map correspond to the two-dimensional representation of the arrangement of the electrodes and the third axis represents one of a plurality of stimulation parameters with positions along the third axis corresponding to numerical values of the one of the stimulation parameters; and
displaying, by the computer processor and on the display, a plurality of markings on the clinical effects map, wherein each of the markings represents a stimulation instance and is displayed at a position with coordinates along the first axis and second axis corresponding to the electrode used for stimulation in the stimulation instance and a coordinate along the third axis corresponding to the numerical value of the one of the stimulation parameters used for stimulation in the stimulation instance, wherein each marking has a graphical characteristic representing a therapeutic effect or a side-effect resulting from the stimulation instance.

Abstract
A method includes displaying, on a display coupled to a computer processor, a two-dimensional representation of an arrangement of electrodes of a lead having one or more segmented electrodes; displaying, by the computer processor and on the display, a three-dimensional clinical effects map with two of the dimensions of the clinical effects map corresponding to the two-dimensional representation of the arrangement of the electrode and a third dimension corresponding to a stimulation parameter; and displaying, by the computer processor and on the display, at least one marking on the clinical effects map. Each marking represents a stimulation instance and is displayed at a position corresponding to the electrode used for stimulation in the stimulation instance and a value of the stimulation parameter used for stimulation in the stimulation instance. Each marking has a graphical characteristic representing a therapeutic effect or a side-effect resulting from the stimulation instance.
