A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11998747B2) outlines a programmer designed to communicate with an implantable pulse generator for neurostimulation purposes. The programmer includes communication circuitry, a user interface, a processor, and memory with instructions for collecting data from the pulse generator during neurostimulation, displaying timing indications of stimulation bursts with a time delay to match actual application, and adjusting stimulation parameters during the process. The programmer can show countdown times for subsequent bursts, therapy status indications, and real-time display of collected data, enhancing the precision and control of neurostimulation therapy.

Moreover, the patent describes a method for delivering neurostimulation to patients using the programmer and pulse generator system. This method involves collecting ongoing neurostimulation data, displaying timing indications synchronized with actual stimulation bursts, and adjusting stimulation parameters during titration. The method includes features like countdown times for future bursts, therapy status indications, and the ability to query and receive timing data blocks from the pulse generator for continued display post-communication. This innovative system aims to optimize the delivery of neurostimulation therapy by ensuring accurate timing and parameter adjustments, potentially improving patient outcomes and treatment efficacy in neurostimulation applications.
