Scoring of sensed neurological signals for use with a medical device system
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for scoring a severity of sensed neurological signals relating to a nervous system disorder comprising the steps of:
- (a) receiving from a monitoring element a neurological signal having at least one event to be scored;
(b) identifying at least one feature of the neurological signal to use in scoring;
(c) computing a score of relative severity of the event using the identified feature; and
(d) ranking the event by severity relative to at least one other scored event.

Abstract
A medical device system capable of scoring a severity of sensed neurological signals relating to a nervous system disorder. The system comprises a monitoring element that receives a neurological signal having at least one event to be scored. The medical device system identifies one or more features of the neurological signal to use in scoring and computes a score of relative severity of the event using the identified feature. Once two or more events have been scored, the events may be ranked by severity relative to each other.

15. A medical device system capable of scoring a severity of sensed neurological signals relating to a nervous system disorder comprising in combination:
-
(a) at least one monitoring element, each generating a neurological signal of a sensed neurological condition; and
(b) computer executable instructions for performing the steps of (i) identifying at least one feature of the neurological signal to use in scoring;
(ii) computing a score of relative severity of the event using the identified feature; and
(iii) ranking the event by severity relative to at least one other scored event. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)
