Associating therapy adjustments with posture states using a stability timer
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving an indication of an adjustment to one or more parameters of electrical stimulation therapy delivered to a patient, wherein the adjustment is made by the patient while occupying a first posture state and prior to the patient occupying a second posture state;
receiving an indication that the patient is occupying the second posture state; and
responsive to receiving the indication that the patient is occupying the second posture state, associating, by a processor, the adjustment to the one or more parameters with the second posture state, wherein the adjustment to the one or more parameters is not associated with the first posture state.

Abstract
The disclosure describes techniques for associating therapy adjustments with posture states using a timer. The techniques may include detecting a patient adjustment to electrical stimulation therapy delivered to the patient, sensing a posture state of the patient, and associating the detected adjustment with the sensed posture state if the sensed posture state is sensed within a first period following the detection of the adjustment and if the sensed posture state does not change during a second period following the sensing of the sensed posture state.
