Abstract
A method may include delivering autonomic neural stimulation (ANS) therapy, including delivering stimulation pulses to evoke physiological responses. The method may further include recording physiological parameter values, including recording first population data, the first population data including evoked response (ER) values corresponding to the evoked physiological responses, and recording second population data, the second population data including reference values that include no effect (NE) values corresponding to times without an evoked physiological response. The method may further include quantifying a relationship between the first population data and the second population data, and analyzing the quantified relationship for a signature to indicate if the stimulation pulses are evoking desired physiological responses.
