Systems and methods for monitoring a patient's neurological disease state
First Claim
1. A system for providing neurological disease state information to a patient, the system comprising:
- one or more sensors that sense at least one signal that comprise feature(s) that are indicative of a neurological disease state;
a signal processing assembly in communication with the one or more sensors that processes the at least one signal to estimate the neurological disease state; and
a patient interface module in communication with the signal processing assembly that communicates with a patient an output that is indicative of the estimated neurological disease state.

Abstract
The present invention provides a system for providing neurological disease state information to a patient. The system comprises one or more sensors that sense at least one signal that comprise feature(s) that are indicative of a neurological disease state. A signal processing assembly is in communication with the one or more sensors and processes the at least one signal to estimate the neurological disease state. A patient interface module is in communication with the signal processing assembly and communicates with a patient an output that is indicative of the patient'"'"'s estimated neurological disease state.

30. A system for providing epilepsy disease state information to a patient, the system comprising:
-
one or more sensors coupled to a nervous system component that sense at least one signal that comprise characteristic(s) that are indicative of an epilepsy disease state;
an implanted digital signal processing assembly in communication with the one or more sensors that generates an estimated epilepsy disease state based at least on part on the at least one signal from the one or more sensors; and
a patient interface module that is external to the patient'"'"'s body in wireless communication with the implanted signal processing assembly, wherein the patient interface module communicates to the patient an output that allows the patient to monitor their epilepsy disease state. - View Dependent Claims (31)
