Abstract:
1. A method comprising: receiving, with one or more processors, information indicative of a change in a first therapy field, wherein the first therapy field was generated by prior delivery of therapy, by a medical device, to tissue of a patient according to a therapy program, wherein prior to the change in the first therapy field, when the medical device delivers therapy according to the therapy program, the first therapy field is generated, and wherein the change in the first therapy field occurs without change to the therapy program; in response to receiving the information indicative of the change in the first therapy field, generating, with the one or more processors, a first therapy field model based on the therapy program that is used to generate the first therapy field prior to the change in the first therapy field and the information indicative of the change in the first therapy field; comparing, with the one or more processors, the first therapy field model to an algorithmic model of a baseline therapy field; and modifying, with the one or more processors, the therapy program based on the comparison of the first therapy field model to the algorithmic model of the baseline therapy field.
