Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for graphically configuring leads for a medical device. According to one aspect, the system generally comprises a medical device and a processing device, such as a programmer or computer, adapted to be in communication with the medical device. The medical device has at least one lead with at least one electrode in a configuration that can be changed using the processing device. The processing device provides a graphical display of the configuration. In one embodiment, the graphical display graphically represents, illustrates or displays the lead(s), the electrode(s), a pulse polarity, and a vector. According to another aspect, the method generally comprises receiving information for a medical device having at least one lead with at least one electrode in a configuration, and presenting a graphical representation of the configuration on a display. According to other aspects, a device and a computer-readable medium encoded with a software program for providing a graphical display of a lead configuration for an implantable medical device are also provided herein.
