Abstract:
A therapy adjustment received from a patient is associated with a sensed patient posture state. Thereafter, a stability indication can be associated with the sensed posture state to indicate that a therapy adjustment specific to the sensed posture state was received and implemented. In addition, therapy parameter values associated with related patient posture states are updated based on the therapy adjustment. In some examples, only the related posture states that are not associated with respective stability indications are updated based on the therapy adjustment. The absence of a stability indication indicates that the patient has not inputted a therapy adjustment specific to the respective related posture state. As a result, the therapy parameter values associated with the related posture states that are not associated with stability indications may float until the patient adjusts the therapy parameter value associated with the respective related posture state.
