Abstract:
1. A method comprising: defining a plurality of posture states for a patient including a first posture state and a second posture state; defining a value of a first therapy parameter for the first posture state, a value of a second therapy parameters for a first posture state, and a value of the second therapy parameter for the second posture state, wherein a value of the first therapy parameter for the second posture state is initially undefined following the definition of the second posture state; determining, while the value of the first therapy parameter for the second posture state is undefined and the value of the second therapy parameter for the second posture state is defined, that the patient transitioned from the first posture state to the second posture state; controlling the delivery, prior to defining the value of the first therapy parameter for the second posture state, of a therapy to the patient while the patient occupies the second posture state based on the determination, wherein the therapy delivered while that patient occupies the second posture state is delivered based on the value of the first therapy parameter defined for the first posture state and the value of the second therapy parameter defined for the second posture state; receiving, subsequent to the delivery of the therapy, patient input indicating a value for the undefined value of the first therapy parameter for the second posture state while the patient is in the second posture state or transitioning to the second posture state; and defining, in response to the receipt of the patient input, the value of the first therapy parameter for the second posture state based on the patient input.
