  • Publication number: 20190290912
    Abstract: Techniques, systems, and devices are disclosed for delivering stimulation therapy to a patient. In one example, a medical device senses, via one or more electrodes, one or more oscillations of a bioelectrical signal of a brain of a patient. In response to sensing the one or more oscillations, the medical device generates a plurality of bursts of stimulation therapy pulses, the plurality of bursts comprising an inter-burst frequency selected based on a frequency of the one or more oscillations of the bioelectrical signal. Further, the medical device delivers the plurality of bursts of stimulation therapy pulses to the patient to modulate a state of the patient associated with the one or more oscillations of the bioelectrical signal.

  • Publication number: 20180085586
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for delivering electrical stimulation therapy to a patient. In one example, a medical system delivers electrical stimulation therapy to a tissue of the patient via electrodes. The medical system determines a first response of a first sensed signal of the patient to the electrical stimulation therapy and a second response of a second sensed signal of the patient to the electrical stimulation therapy. Based on the first response and the second response for controlling the electrical stimulation therapy, the medical system selects one of the first sensed signal and the second sensed signal of the patient. The medical system adjusts a level of at least one parameter of the electrical stimulation therapy based on the selected one of the first sensed signal and the second sensed signal.

  • Publication number: 20180085585
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for delivering electrical stimulation therapy to a patient. In one example, a medical system delivers electrical stimulation therapy to a tissue of the patient via electrodes. The medical system determines a first change of a first sensed signal of the patient to movement by the patient and a second change of a second sensed signal of the patient to the movement by the patient. Based on the first change and the second change, the medical system selects one of the first sensed signal and the second sensed signal of the patient for controlling the electrical stimulation therapy. The medical system adjusts a level of at least one parameter of the electrical stimulation therapy based on the selected one of the first sensed signal and the second sensed signal.

  • Publication number: 20180071530
    Abstract: In some examples of selecting a target therapy delivery site for treating a patient condition, a relatively high frequency electrical stimulation signal is delivered to at least two areas within a first region (e.g., an anterior nucleus of the thalamus) of a brain of a patient, and changes in brain activity (e.g., as indicated by bioelectrical brain signals) within a second region (e.g., a hippocampus) of the brain of the patient in response to the delivered stimulation are determined. The target therapy delivery site, an electrode combination, or both, may be selected based on the changes in brain activity.
