Therapy program modification based on an energy threshold
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- determining, by a processor, that an energy associated with a therapy program exceeds a threshold value, wherein therapy delivery to a patient by a medical device according to the therapy program generates a therapy field;
responsive to the determination, generating, by the processor, at least a first subfield and a second subfield to decompose the therapy field; and
outputting, by the processor and for display, the first subfield and the second subfield.

Abstract
A therapy program is modified to decompose an electrical stimulation signal defined by the therapy program into a plurality of subsignals based on a comparison between an energy associated with the stimulation signal and a threshold value. An electrical stimulation signal defined by a therapy program may be decomposed into a plurality of subsignals when an electrical stimulation energy of the stimulation signal exceeds the maximum energy output of the medical device or of a channel of the medical device. The energy associated with each one of the subsignals may be less than the energy threshold value of the medical device.
