Assignee: BOSTON SCIENTIFIC NEUROMODULATION CORPORATION
Field: Medical technology (Instruments)
Classification: CPC A | IPC A

Claim 0:
1. A method, comprising:
delivering a spinal cord stimulation (SCS) neuromodulation therapy to a patient, including delivering neuromodulation to neural tissue;
monitoring an effectiveness of the SCS neuromodulation therapy by monitoring a health-related parameter of the patient indicative of therapeutic effectiveness during the SCS neuromodulation therapy, wherein the health-related parameter indicative of the therapeutic effectiveness of the SCS neuromodulation therapy is monitored by sensing the health-related parameter using at least one sensor or receiving patient-entered information for the health-related parameter;
determining when the monitored effectiveness indicates calibration for the neuromodulation;
automatically initiating a calibration process when the calibration for the neuromodulation is indicated by the monitored effectiveness, wherein the calibration process calibrates the neuromodulation delivered for the SCS therapy; and
delivering the SCS neuromodulation therapy using the calibrated neuromodulation.
