Abstract:
A neuromodulation system and method of providing sub-threshold therapy to a patient. An anodic perception threshold of super-threshold electrical energy and a cathodic perception threshold of super-threshold electrical energy are determined for a plurality of electrode sets. A ratio between the anodic perception threshold and the cathodic perception threshold is calculated for each of the electrode sets. An effective electrode set is selected based on the ratio between the anodic perception threshold and the cathodic perception threshold.

Claim (Index 14):
A neuromodulation system for use with a plurality of electrodes implanted in the patient, comprising:\n modulation output circuitry configured to deliver neurostimulation therapy and deliver both anodic stimulation and cathodic stimulation to each of a plurality of electrode sets from the plurality of electrodes; eCAP sensing circuitry configured to sense corresponding eCAP responses to the anodic stimulation delivered to each of the plurality of electrode sets and sense corresponding eCAP responses to the cathodic stimulation delivered to each of the plurality of electrode sets; and control circuitry configured to control the modulation output circuitry to deliver both the anodic stimulation and the cathodic stimulation to each of the plurality of electrode sets and process the sensed eCAP responses to the anodic stimulation and the sensed eCAP responses to the cathodic stimulation for determining an electrode set for use in delivering the neurostimulation therapy, and control the modulation output circuitry to deliver the neurostimulation therapy using the determined electrode set.
