Abstract:
The present disclosure involves systems and methods of programming electrical stimulation therapy for a patient. A communications link is established with a pulse generator that is configured to generate electrical stimulation pulses. An intermittent electrical coupling between the pulse generator and a diagnostic tool is simulated. This simulation is performed by instructing, for a plurality of cycles, the pulse generator to automatically turn on and off the generation of electrical stimulation pulses. Each cycle includes a first time period and a second time period following the first time period. The simulating includes: instructing the pulse generator to generate the electrical stimulation pulses during the first time period; and instructing the pulse generator to stop generating the electrical stimulation pulses during the second time period.

Claim (Index 19):
The method of  claim 14 , wherein:\n the pulse generator includes a trial stimulator located outside a body of the patient; and the diagnostic tool includes a percutaneous nerve evaluation (PNE) needle inserted inside the body of the patient.
