Patent Images
1. An implantable neurostimulator for the treatment of a neurological disorder, comprising:
- a detection subsystem including a triggering detection channel in a plurality of detection channels of the detection subsystem that are configured to detect a neurological event in an electrographic signal of a patient;
a data storage area associated with the detection channels and configured to store a parameter that comprises an electrographic measurement representative of a characteristic of the event; and
an adaptive stimulation subsystem configured to analyze the parameter, select a therapy based at least in part on the parameter and deliver therapy to the patient.

Abstract
An implantable neurostimulator system adapted to provide therapy for various neurological disorders is capable of varying therapy delivery strategies based on the context, physiological or otherwise, into which the therapy is to be delivered. Responsive and scheduled therapies can be varied depending on various sensor measurements, calculations, inferences, and device states (including elapsed times and times of day) to deliver an appropriate course of therapy under the circumstances.
