More Information
Summary:Medical device systems and methods for providing spinal cord stimulation (SCS) are disclosed. The SCS systems and methods provide therapy below the perception threshold of the patient. The methods and systems are configured to measure neurological responses to stimulation and use the neurological responses as biomarkers to maintain and adjust therapy. An example of neurological responses includes an evoked compound action potential (ECAP).
