Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A neurostimulation system provides for capture verification and stimulation intensity adjustment to ensure effectiveness of vagus nerve stimulation in modulating one or more target functions in a patient. In various embodiments, stimulation is applied to the vagus nerve, and evoked responses are detected to verify that the stimulation captures the vagus nerve and to adjust one or more stimulation parameters that control the stimulation intensity.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A system for delivering neurostimulation to a body having a nerve including A-fibers and B-fibers each corresponding to one type of nerve fibers, the system comprising: a stimulation output circuit configured to deliver neurostimulation pulses to the nerve; a neural sensing circuit configured to sense a neural signal representative of neural activities in the nerve including evoked neural responses each evoked by one of the neurostimulation pulses; and a…
