Abstract

The present technology provides a medical stimulation system having a clinical programmer configured to operate on a computational and memory device having a wireless communication device. The technology also provides a neurostimulator configured to wirelessly communicate with the clinical programmer. The neurostimulator also includes a pulse generator operatively coupled with an electrode by a lead. The pulse generator is configured to transmit an electrical signal comprising a repeating succession of non-regular pulse trains. Each pulse train includes a plurality of pulses having non-regular, non-random, differing inter-pulse intervals therebetween. The pulse trains repeat in succession to treat a neurological condition. Further, the pulse trains are initiated by instructions communicated by the clinical programmer.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application No. 61 / 920,154, filed December 23, 2013, entitled "PROGRAMMING SYSTEMS FOR DEEP BRAINSTIMULATOR SYSTEM," which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to a programming system for an implantable deep brain stimulator. Background technique [0004] Deep brain stimulators (DBS) have been found to be successful in treating a variety of neurological disorders including, without limitation, movement disorders. Typically, such treatments involve placing a deep brain stimulator-type lead into a targeted area of ​​the brain through a burr hole drilled in the patient's skull and applying appropriate stimulation to the targeted area through the lead. [0005] Preferably, in DBS, the beneficial (symptom-reducing) effect is mainly observed with stimulation patterns in which the interval betwe...
