Abstract
Presented herein are techniques for determining an estimated battery autonomy (e.g., estimated run-time) of a medical device having at least one actuator/transducer configured to mechanically stimulate a recipient. The medical device is specifically configured for the recipient and, as such, operates in accordance with a plurality of recipient-specific settings. The configuration of the medical device for the recipient (e.g., the plurality of recipient-specific settings), along with frequency and level current consumption characteristics of the medical device, are used to determine the estimated battery autonomy of the medical device. An environmental profile of the recipient can also be used with the configuration of the medical device for the recipient and the frequency and level current consumption characteristics of the medical device to determine the estimated battery autonomy.
