Classification: CPC A | IPC A

Claim 9:
10. A neural stimulation system, comprising:
a first system configured to deliver neural stimulation pules, including more than one neural stimulation pulse over a period of time, for a neural stimulation therapy; and
a second system configured to program the first system to deliver the neural stimulation therapy, the second system including a display and a dose programming interface configured for use by a user of the second system to program the first system to deliver the neural stimulation pulses for the neural stimulation therapy,
wherein the neural stimulation system is configured to determine a neural stimulation doses for the neural stimulation therapy by determining, using the neural stimulation system, a total charge for the more than one neural stimulation pulse over the period of time,
wherein the second system is configured to display a dose meter on the display, wherein the dose meter provides an indicator of the neural stimulation dose for the neural stimulation therapy, enabling the user of the second system to receive dose information for either a current user-programmable neural stimulation dose for the neural stimulation therapy that corresponds to currently-programmed stimulation parameters in the first system or a user-proposed neural stimulation dose that corresponds to proposed stimulation parameters for the neural stimulation therapy before the user programs the first system with the proposed neural stimulation parameters.
