Abstract

Techniques, systems, and devices are disclosed for delivering stimulation therapy to a patient. In one example, a medical device determines a first set of stimulation parameters that define entrainment stimulation pulses configured to entrain electrical activity in a patient. The medical device may control a stimulation generator to generate the entrainment stimulation pulses according to the first set of stimulation parameters. The medical device may further determine a second set of stimulation parameters that define at least one desynchronization stimulation pulse configured to disrupt at least a portion of the electrical activity entrained by the entrainment stimulation pulses. The medical device may subsequently control the stimulation generator to generate the desynchronization stimulation pulse(s) according to the second set of stimulation parameters.
