Assignee: MEDTRONIC, INC.
Field: Medical technology (Instruments)
Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 11:
12. A system comprising:
a medical device configured to deliver electrical stimulation therapy to a patient according to a therapy cycle comprising an on-cycle during which electrical stimulation therapy is delivered to the patient and an off-cycle during which electrical stimulation therapy is not delivered to the patient; and
one or more processors configured to:
receive information indicative of one or more physiological parameters of the patient;
generate an event marker based on determining an occurrence of a patient event wherein the patient event comprises an occurrence of a symptom of a patient condition;
store, in response to generating the event marker, the information indicative of the one or more physiological parameters in memory;
determine whether the medical device is in the off-cycle or the on-cycle of the therapy cycle implemented by the medical device at a time based on the generation of the event marker;
in response to the event marker, control the medical device to initiate the on-cycle if the medical device is in the off-cycle at the time, thereby shortening a duration of the off-cycle of the therapy cycle implemented by the medical device at the time; and
in response to the event marker, control the medical device to restart the on-cycle if the medical device is in the on-cycle at the time, thereby elongating a duration of the on-cycle of the therapy cycle implemented by the medical device at the time.
