Configuring and testing treatment therapy parameters for a medical device system
First Claim
1. A method for configuring and testing therapy parameters for a treatment of a nervous system disorder with a medical device system, the medical device system being in a manual treatment therapy mode, the method comprising:
- (a) receiving a first set of information from a user, the first set of information being associated with a first treatment therapy configuration;
(b) assessing whether the first set of information is within a range of safety;
(c) applying a first treatment therapy to a patient in accordance with the first set of information;
(d) if the first treatment therapy is not safe, executing a corrective action; and
(e) if the first treatment therapy is safe, storing the first set of information for subsequent use.

Abstract
Apparatus and method support the configuration and testing of therapy parameters for a medical device system in the treatment of nervous system disorders. With the embodiment, the medical device system operates in a manual treatment therapy mode, in which the medical device system evaluates a set of information that is indicative of a system configuration. The medical device system determines if the set of information is acceptable. During the manual treatment therapy mode, the medical device system applies therapeutic treatment to a patient in accordance with the set of information. If the patient cannot tolerate the therapeutic treatment, the user indicates so through a user interface. The medical device system may associate the patient'"'"'s intolerance to therapeutic treatments that equal or exceed the patient'"'"'s level of tolerance. Moreover, the medical device system may use this information to prevent a delivery of therapeutic treatment that exceeds the patient'"'"'s level of tolerance during a run mode.

25. An apparatus for configuring and testing therapy parameters for a treatment of a nervous system disorder with a medical device system, the apparatus comprising in combination:
-
a user interface;
a treatment therapy module;
a memory; and
a processor that is connected to the user interface in order to receive a command from a user and to send a response to the user and that instructs the treatment therapy module, the processor configured to perform;
(a) receiving a first set of information from the user through the user interface, the first set of information being associated with a first treatment therapy configuration;
(b) assessing whether the first set of information is within a range of safety;
(c) applying a first treatment therapy to a patient through the treatment therapy module in accordance with the first set of information;
(d) if the first treatment therapy is not safe, executing a corrective action; and
(e) if the first treatment therapy is safe, storing the first set of information in the memory, wherein the first set of information is accessible for a subsequent treatment therapy. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33)
