| 20080234780 | SELECTIVE NERVE STIMULATION WITH OPTIONALLY CLOSED-LOOP CAPABILITIES - Systems and methods for steering one or more stimulation fields to a selected nerve target, thereby optimizing one or a combination of low stimulation thresholds, desired therapy outcomes, or a minimization of adverse stimulation side-effects. An array of electrodes disposed, at least in part, on two or more neural stimulation leads are used for steering the stimulation fields to the selected nerve target and are positioned adjacent the selected target. The stimulation may be titrated based on, among other things, a detected physiologic response to the applied stimulation. | 09-25-2008 |
