Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for setting a therapeutic dose of a neuromodulator implanted into a patient. The therapeutic dose typically includes a therapeutic dose duration including a ramp-up time to reach a peak modulation voltage and a sustained peak modulation time during which the voltage is sustained at the peak modulation voltage. The methods and apparatuses may use a testing ramp to identify a peak modulation voltage that is patient-specific and provides a maximized therapeutic effect while remaining comfortably tolerable by the patient during the application of energy by the neuromodulator.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for collecting and quantifying patient-reported data from a neuromodulator. The patient-reported data typically includes a pain score that quantifies the level of pain experienced by the patient at a particular time. The apparatus can include a user interface that allows the patient to enter such information in real time. The methods and apparatuses can include a correlation process, whereby each patient-reported entry is correlated with a corresponding neuromodulation treatment. This correlation can be used to identify treatment parameters and dosages that are most effective, and to further identify when certain dosages are most effective. This information can further be used as feedback to generate optimized treatments for a specific patient and iteratively improve the treatments. In some cases, the correlation process identifies under reported or over reported data, which can be filtered out to provide more accurate optimized treatments.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods of using them for setting a therapeutic dose of a neuromodulator implanted into a patient are described. The methods and apparatuses described herein may include determining the dose based on a patient-specific database of previously delivered dose parameters and corresponding pre-delivery and post-delivery pain estimates from the patient.
