1. A stimulation system comprising:
- a first sensor to generate a first reading;
a second sensor to generate a second reading; and
an analysis module to conduct an evaluation of a patient based on the first reading and the second reading, wherein the patient receives a stimulation signal from the stimulation system.

Abstract
A stimulation system can have a first sensor to generate a first reading and a second sensor to generate a second reading. An analysis module of a programmer such as a patient programmer, which programs a stimulation signal to be delivered to a patient, conducts an evaluation of the patient based on the first and second readings. Evaluations may include determinations such as range of motion determinations, posture determinations, physical task-specific brain activity determinations, cognitive task-specific brain activity determinations, and brain activity-specific movement determinations.

15. A deep brain stimulation system comprising:
-
an implantable pulse generator including a first accelerometer to generate a first reading, the implantable pulse generator to generate a stimulation signal; a stimulation extension to receive the stimulation signal from the implantable pulse generator; a brain stimulation lead to receive the stimulation signal from the stimulation extension and deliver the stimulation signal to a patient at a brain treatment site; and a patient programmer including a second accelerometer to generate a second reading, the patient programmer to compare the first reading to the second reading to obtain a relative measurement and determine a range of motion for the patient based on the relative measurement. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A method of operating a stimulation system comprising:
-
transmitting a first reading from a first sensor to an analysis module of the stimulation system; transmitting a second reading from a second sensor to the analysis module; and conducting an evaluation of the patient based on the first reading and the second reading, wherein the patient receives a stimulation signal from the stimulation system. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
