Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method for scoring a severity of a neurological event associated with a nervous system disorder, the computer-implemented method comprising:
- (a) determining using a processor that one or more sensed neurological signals represent a plurality of neurological events;
(b) identifying using a processor at least one feature of each of the plurality of neurological events, wherein the plurality of neurological events are selected from the group consisting of a detection cluster event and a reported event;
(c) computing using a processor a relative severity score for each of the plurality of neurological events using the at least one feature; and
(d) ranking using a processor the plurality of neurological events by severity using the relative severity scores.

Abstract
A medical device system capable of scoring a severity of sensed neurological signals relating to a nervous system disorder. The system comprises a monitoring element that receives a neurological signal having at least one event to be scored. The medical device system identifies one or more features of the neurological signal to use in scoring and computes a score of relative severity of the event using the identified feature. Once two or more events have been scored, the events may be ranked by severity relative to each other.
