Ramping parameter values for electrical stimulation therapy |
摘要 |
Devices, systems, and techniques for ramping one or more parameter values of electrical stimulation are disclosed. An implantable medical device may increase or decrease a parameter value, e.g., amplitude or pulse width, over time to reach a target value of the parameter. In one example, a memory may be configured to store a plurality of amplitude ramp schedules. At least one processor may be configured to obtain a stimulation parameter set that at least partially defines an electrical stimulation therapy, select one of the plurality of amplitude ramp schedules based on a signal frequency of the stimulation parameter set, and increase an amplitude of the electrical stimulation therapy during a ramp period defined by the selected amplitude ramp schedule. |

1. A method for controlling electrical stimulation therapy, the method comprising:
obtaining, by one or more processors, a stimulation parameter set that at least partially defines an electrical stimulation signal deliverable to a patient, the stimulation parameter set comprising a signal frequency value of the electrical stimulation signal; selecting, by the one or more processors, an amplitude ramp schedule based on the signal frequency value of the stimulation parameter set; and increasing, by the one or more processors, an amplitude of the electrical stimulation signal during a ramp period defined by the amplitude ramp schedule. |
