Abstract: A system capable of delivering a therapeutic output to a patient. An implantable medical device is capable of delivering the therapeutic output to the patient. A controller, programmable by a medical professional, operatively coupled to the implantable medical device, to specify, at least in part, the therapeutic output to be delivered to the patient. The controller is operable to specify the therapeutic output through specification of a plurality of tasks and having an interface with the medical professional. The interface accomplishes at least one the plurality of tasks through a series of questions and responses.

Abstract: A system capable of delivering a therapeutic output to a patient. An implantable medical device is capable of delivering the therapeutic output to the patient. A controller, programmable by a medical professional, is operatively coupled to the implantable medical device, to specify, at least in part, the therapeutic output to be delivered to the patient in a series of discrete time intervals over a time period. The controller has an interface allowing the medical professional to graphically select an amount of the therapeutic output to be delivered to the patient in at least one of the series of discrete timer intervals.

Abstract: A controller, method and system capable of delivering a therapeutic output to a patient. An implantable medical device is capable of delivering the therapeutic output to the patient. A controller, programmable by a medical professional, specifies, at least in part, the therapeutic output to be delivered to the patient. The controller is operable to specify the therapeutic output through specification of a plurality of tasks. The controller has an interface with the medical professional in order to accomplish at least one of a plurality of procedures, each of the plurality of procedures including at least some of the plurality of tasks. The controller being selectable by the medical professional to perform one of the plurality of procedures. The controller presents the interface with at least some of the plurality of tasks to be performed by the medical professional based upon a selected one of the plurality of procedures.
