Systems for Monitoring a Patient's Neurological Disease State
First Claim
1. A system for modulating a patient'"'"'s neurological disease state, the system comprising:
- one or more sensors that sense at least one signal that comprise a characteristic that is 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 using a disease state processor to estimate the neurological disease state and to generate a therapy to the patient that is based at least in part on the estimated neurological disease state;
a treatment assembly in communication with the signal processing assembly, wherein said treatment assembly delivers the therapy to a nervous system component of the patient; and
a patient interface module that communicates with a patient an output indicative of the estimated disease state, said patient interface module being in communication with the signal processing assembly and external to the patient'"'"'s body.

Abstract
The present invention provides methods and systems for modulating a patient'"'"'s neurological disease state. In one embodiment, the system comprises one or more sensors that sense at least one signal that comprise a characteristic that is 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 and to generate a therapy to the patient that is based at least in part on the estimated neurological disease state. A treatment assembly is in communication with the signal processing assembly and delivers the therapy to a nervous system component of the patient.
