/Apparatus For Delivering Enhanced Stimulation Waveforms
Abstract

An apparatus for delivering stimulation energy to a patient is provided. The apparatus comprises an algorithm for determining a stimulation paradigm comprising one or more stimulation parameter settings, and an implantable system comprising an implantable device. The implantable device comprises at least one sensor for measuring evoked compound action potentials (eCAPs), muscle responses, and/or other neural responses, and multiple stimulation elements configured to deliver the stimulation energy to tissue based on the stimulation paradigm. The algorithm is configured to determine the stimulation paradigm based on the measured neural responses. Methods of delivering stimulation energy are also provided.
