Abstract
A method and system for programming an implantable therapeutic stimulation device sensing from and delivering therapeutic stimulations to multiple sites within a patient under a plurality of programmable parameters. The method includes automatically determining which parameters need to be programmed, graphically indicating specific parameters that need to be programmed in a spatial correspondence to the affected sites in the patient and/or displaying a waveform corresponding to expected physiological activity with the programming, and providing control inputs to program the specific parameters. The method can also include automatically evaluating the programmed parameters, and if errors exist in the programming, indicating the errors and awaiting corrective input, else programming the implantable device. The method can also include automatically determining a number of sensing and stimulation electrodes connected to the device.
