Abstract

Methods, devices and systems facilitating remote programming of an implanted neurostimulation system. Establishing communication between an implanted pulse generator (IPG) and a remote programming device associated with a remote support entity through one or more intermediary devices, which can utilize various communication protocols, such as Bluetooth (BT), MedRadio (MR), cellular, WiFi, or any combination thereof. The intermediary devices include a patient device, which can communicate directly with Bluetooth-enabled IPGs and a remote programming device, or can utilize additional intermediary devices such as a patient remote or adapter accessory to facilitate communication with existing non-BT enabled IPGs. The patient device and remote device can further include a software framework to facilitate communication between the IPG and the remote support entity, as well as collecting subjective/objective patient information. The system further include a web-based portal accessible by the patient device and remote device to further inform remote programming or self-programming.
