Abstract
Patients with spinal cord injuries have benefited from neurostimulation therapy comprising delivery of electrical stimulation to enable or excite neurological responses using an implantable neurostimulator having an electrode array. Dangerous levels of charge are avoided while providing multiple, simultaneous stimulation waveforms by inducing a short in an electrode when a monitored value reaches or exceeds a predetermined threshold.
