THERAPY PROGRAM SELECTION
First Claim
14. A system comprising:
- a memory that stores a plurality of therapy programs or instructions for modifying a baseline therapy program, and associates each therapy program or instruction with a patient state, the patient state comprising at least one of a movement state, sleep state or a speech state, wherein the memory stores therapy programs associated with at least two of the movement, sleep, and speech states; and
a processor that determines a patient state and selects a therapy program from the memory based on the determined patient state.

Abstract
A therapy program is selected based on a patient state, where the patient state comprises at least one of a movement state, sleep state or speech state. In this way, therapy delivery is tailored to the patient state, which may include specific patient symptoms. The therapy program is selected from a plurality of stored therapy programs that comprise therapy programs associated with a respective one at least two of the movement, sleep, and speech states. Techniques for determining a patient state include receiving volitional patient input or detecting biosignals generated within the patient'"'"'s brain. The biosignals are nonsymptomatic and may be incidental to the movement, sleep, and speech states or generated in response to volitional patient input.
