An example of a system for delivering neurostimulation to a patient and controlling the delivery of neurostimulation using sensors may include a stimulation output circuit, a sensing circuit, and a control circuit. The stimulation output circuit may be configured to deliver the neurostimulation. The sensing circuit may be configured to receive sensed signals from the sensors and to process the sensed signals. The sensing circuit has adjustable settings controlling the processing of the sensed signals. The control circuit may be configured to control the delivery of the neurostimulation using the processed sensed signals and to control the settings of the sensing circuit according to a sequence of sensing blocks each including a set of sensing parameters.

Method and apparatus for sequencing sensing blocks for neuromodulation

A method for automating selection of stimulation parameters for a stimulation device implanted in a patient includes setting, by a user, at least one limit on each of at least one stimulation parameter and performing, automatically using at least one processor, the following actions for each of a plurality of sets of the stimulation parameters constrained by the at least one limit: stimulating the patient, by the stimulation device, using the set of stimulation parameters, sensing one or more effects arising in response to the stimulation, and updating, by the at least one processor, a collection of the effects and sets of stimulation parameters with the one or more effects and the set of stimulation parameters. The method further includes selecting, by the processor, one of the sets of stimulation parameters based on the effects.
