摘要: Systems and methods are described for adjusting the operation of implantable stimulation devices used to provide medical treatment. Several hierarchical algorithms which operate according conditional strategies. In one such strategy semi-automatic therapy adjustment occurs by automatically issuing patient alert messages when selected operations occur, using a patient's response message in order adjust therapy, as long this is provided within time limit. Another only implements complex these indicated prior operations. The invention serves reduce risk adaptation provision that either not desired or warranted, decrease depletion battery power and/or drug reserves increase benefit. Methods also resolving data conflicts may occur adaptively delivery therapy.
