Abstract: A method of neurostimulation titration includes titrating a neurostimulation signal from a first set of parameters toward a target set of parameters according to a titration aggressiveness profile having a titration hold point. The method further includes receiving a hold indicator indicating that the titration has reached the titration hold point. The method further includes initiating an intermediate hold of the titrating of the neurostimulation signal in response to receiving the hold indicator. The method further includes receiving an indication of a titration resumption that discontinues the intermediate hold.

Abstract: A method of neurostimulation titration. The method includes setting titration parameters for an electrical signal delivered by an implantable medical device, initiating titration with the titration parameters and an aggressiveness profile, performing titration by increasing at least one of a current amplitude, a frequency, a pulse width or a duty cycle of the electrical signal until a threshold is reached or a side effect is detected, pausing the titration while waiting for commands from the patient or caregiver, and resuming the titration in response to receiving authorization from an external device.

Abstract: A neurostimulation system comprises a sensor and a control system. The sensor is configured to detect a cardiac physiological measure of a patient. The control system is programmed to monitor, via the sensor, the cardiac physiological measure during the treatment. The control system is further programmed to detect a change in the cardiac physiological measure during the treatment. The control system is further programmed to determine, based on the detected change in the cardiac physiological measure, a first transition time in a duty cycle of a neurostimulation signal delivered to the patient where the neurostimulation signal transitions between a stimulation OFF period and a stimulation ON period.
