    Abstract: A method of providing stimulation therapy to a patient includes performing first and second calibration processes in first and second patient posture states, respectively. The first and second calibration processes respectively associates a sensation experienced by a patient, in the respective patient posture states, with first and second amounts of an evoked potential, respectively, and also with first and second values of a stimulation parameter to achieve the first and second amounts of evoked potential, respectively. Thereafter, a current patient posture state is detected. If the current patient posture state is detected as the first patient posture state, stimulation therapy is applied to the patient using the first value of the stimulation parameter as an initial value. If the current patient posture state is detected as the second patient posture state, stimulation therapy is applied to the patient using the second value of the stimulation parameter as the initial value.

    Abstract: The present disclosure involves a medical system. The medical system an implantable lead configured to deliver an electrical stimulation therapy for a patient. The lead includes an elongate lead body that is configured to be coupled to a pulse generator that generates electrical stimulations pulses as part of the electrical stimulation therapy. The lead also includes a paddle coupled to the lead body. The paddle contains a plurality of electrodes that are each configured to deliver the electrical stimulation pulses to the patient. The plurality of electrodes is arranged into at least three columns that each include a respective subset of the electrodes. The plurality of electrodes each includes a unique centerline, wherein the centerlines extend in directions transverse to the columns.

    Abstract: A patient is detected to be in a first posture state. In response to the patient being detected to be in the first posture state, a first electrical stimulation therapy is applied to a body region of the patient by a pulse generator implanted in the patient. The patient is detected to be in a second posture state. In response to the patient being detected to be in the second posture state that is different from the first posture state, a second electrical stimulation therapy is applied to the body region of the patient by the pulse generator. The second electrical stimulation therapy is different from the first electrical stimulation therapy.

    Abstract: A method of identifying a location for applying a stimulation therapy to treat a patient includes stimulating a first body region of the patient transcutaneously via a stimulus generator. The body region contains a first portion of a nerve that has an elongate shape. In response to the stimulating, action potentials received from a second portion of the nerve are monitored over a period of time. The second portion of the nerve is in a second body region of the patient that is located remotely from the first body region. Based on the monitoring, an optimized location of the second portion of the nerve is determined for applying the stimulation therapy to treat the first body region.
