摘要：A programmer allows a clinician to identify combinations of electrodes fromwithin an electrode set implanted in a patient that enable delivery of desirable
neurostimulation therapy by an implantable medical device. The programmer executesan electrode combination search algorithm to select combinations of electrodes to testin a non-random order. According to algorithms consistent with the invention, theprogrammer may first identify a position of a first cathode for subsequent combinations,and then select electrodes from the set to test with the first cathode as anodes oradditional cathodes based on the proximity of the electrodes to the first cathode. Theprogrammer may store information for each combination tested, and the informationmay facilitate the identification of desirable electrode combinations by the clinician. Theclinician may create neurostimulation therapy programs that include identified desirableprogram combinations.
