Abstract
Methods and systems for providing peripheral nerve stimulation are disclosed. Stimulation is delivered to a trunk of the nerve using electrodes configured at different circumferential locations about the nerve. Action potentials evoked by the stimulation within branches of the nerve are measured to map neural element within the trunk to the branches. The mapping can inform the selection of stimulation parameters that provide a therapeutic benefit and/or avoid unwanted side effects.
