CLINICAL NEUROSTIMULATION CONTROLLER
First Claim
1. A system to select stimulation electrodes with a data processing system comprising one or more processors and a memory that execute an interface, a communication component, and a mapping component to:
- receive, by the interface, an indication of a configuration of a neurological lead, the neurological lead comprising a plurality of electrodes;
transmit, by the communication component and to an implanted stimulation device, a first message to deliver a first stimulation signal with a first set of stimulation parameters to one of the plurality of electrodes;
transmit, by the communication component and to the implanted stimulation device, a second message to deliver a second stimulation signal with a second set of stimulation parameters to the one of the plurality of electrodes;
receive, by an interface, an indication of a first stimulation effect based on the first stimulation signal to the one of the plurality of electrodes;
receive, by an interface, an indication of a second stimulation effect based on the second stimulation signal to the one of the plurality of electrodes;
determine, by the mapping component, a therapeutic window for the one of the plurality of electrodes based on a difference between the first set of stimulation parameters and the second set of stimulation parameters, the indication of the first stimulation effect, and the indication of the second stimulation effect; and
generate, by the mapping component, a therapeutic window map based on the therapeutic window for the one of the plurality of electrodes and the indication of the configuration of the neurological lead.

Abstract
The present disclosure describes system and methods to configure an implantable neurostimulation device. The system can include a programmer for neurostimulation devices. The programmer can be a handheld device that programs the stimulation parameters for both new and existing patients. The programmer can configure the neurostimulation device to iteratively deliver stimulations through each of the lead'"'"'s electrodes. The programmer can receive and record indications of the patient'"'"'s response to each of the stimulations and generate benefit scores or side effect scores based on the patient'"'"'s response. The programmer can determine the scores based on data received from patient monitors, external sensors, and clinician input. Based on the scores, the programmer can generate therapeutic windows for each of the electrodes. The programmer can combine the therapeutic windows into a therapeutic window map.
