Title:
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENHANCING OR OPTIMIZING NEURAL STIMULATION THERAPY FOR TREATING SYMPTOMS OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE AND/OR OTHER MOVEMENT DISORDERS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004052183
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Systems and methods for treating a neurological disorder comprising determining a first set of neural stimulation parameters capable of treating a first subset of symptoms, determining a second set of neural stimulation parameters capable of treating a second subset of symptoms, and applying a neural stimulation therapy based upon the first set of neural stimulation parameters and the second set for neural stimulation parameters to the patient. The first set of neural stimulation parameters can include electrical stimulation at a first frequency, and the second set of neural stimulation parameters can include electrical stimulation at a second frequency. The apparatus includes electrode contacts (144), stimulator (110), and a lead (112).
