Abstract:
A method of neurostimulation titration. The method includes setting titration parameters for an electrical signal delivered by an implantable medical device, initiating titration with the titration parameters and an aggressiveness profile, performing titration by increasing at least one of a current amplitude, a frequency, a pulse width or a duty cycle of the electrical signal until a threshold is reached or a side effect is detected, pausing the titration while waiting for commands from the patient or caregiver, and resuming the titration in response to receiving authorization from an external device.

Claim (Index 17):
The system of  claim 16 , wherein the hold indicator is a first hold indicator, the pre-defined titration hold point is a first pre-defined titration hold point, the intermediate hold is a first intermediate hold, and the indication of a titration resumption is a first indication of a titration resumption; and\n wherein the processor is still further configured to issue still additional control signals that allow the implantable pulse generator to:\n receive a second hold indicator, the second hold indicator being associated with at least one of a second pre-defined titration hold point or an indication of a side effect experienced by the patient in response to the neurostimulation signal conforming with the fourth set of parameters; \n initiate a second intermediate hold of the titrating of the neurostimulation signal in response to the second hold indicator, the second intermediate hold corresponding to the second pre-defined titration hold point being a continuation of the neuromodulation signal conforming with a fourth set of parameters, the second intermediate hold corresponding to the indication of the side effect being a return to the neuromodulation signal conforming with at least one of the first, second, or third sets of parameters; and \n receive a second indication of a titration resumption that discontinues the second intermediate hold.
