Patent ID: 11904171
Assignee: BOSTON SCIENTIFIC NEUROMODULATION CORPORATION
Field: Medical technology (Instruments)
Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 11:
12. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform a method for delivering a neuromodulation therapy to modulate a neural target region without modulating an avoidance region, wherein the method includes:
modulating the neural target without modulating the avoidance region using a first neuromodulation field of a first polarity, the first neuromodulation field being generated by the neuromodulator and a first set of neuromodulation parameters, wherein the first set of neuromodulation parameters includes first fractionalization information, target region information and avoidance region information;
receiving a translation trigger;
automatically translating, in response to receiving the translation trigger and using both the target region information and the avoidance region information, the first set of neuromodulation parameters into a second set of neuromodulation parameters; and
modulating the neural target using a second neuromodulation field of a second polarity, the second neuromodulation field being generated by the neuromodulator and the second set of neuromodulation parameters,
wherein the first fractionalization information and the second fractionalization information provide different fractionalizations defining different distributions of neuromodulation energy across a plurality of electrodes.
