Abstract: The types of electrode leads that are connected to an implantable medical device are determined based on electrical parameters that are measured at the electrodes that are positioned on the leads. The different types of known electrode leads have different physical electrode arrangements that impact the measured electrical parameters. Properties in the measured electrical parameters that are indicative of the physical arrangements of electrodes of known types of electrode leads are utilized to determine the types of leads that are connected to the implantable medical device.

Abstract: Incorrect connection or mapping of leads' proximal terminals to the ports of an Implantable Stimulator Device (ISD), such as an implantable pulse generator or an external trial stimulator, is a concern, and this disclosure is directed to use of measurement and identification algorithms to either determine that leads are properly connected to their assigned ISD ports, or to determine which leads are connected to the ports even if the leads are not preassigned to the ports. Particular focus is given in the disclosed technique to assessing leads that comprise larger number of electrodes than are supported at each port, and thus have more than one proximal terminal that connect to more than one port of the ISD.
