SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DELIVERING ELECTRICAL STIMULATION
A system for delivering electrical stimulation includes a control system and a stimulation stack. Additionally or alternatively, the system can include and/or be configured to interface with any or all of: an electrical stimulation device, a user device, a client application, and/or any other suitable components. A method for delivering electrical stimulation includes receiving an input and delivering electrical stimulation based on an electrical stimulation plan. Additionally or alternatively, the method can include any or all of: determining an electrical stimulation plan based on the input; requesting a suspension of the electrical stimulation plan, requesting an adjustment to the electrical stimulation plan; requesting sham stimulation in the electrical stimulation plan; requesting monitoring of the electrical stimulation plan; requesting a trim adjustment to the electrical stimulation plan; checking the electrical stimulation plan; providing an output to the user; repeating any or all of the above processes; and/or any other suitable processes.
1 . A method for delivering electrical stimulation to a user through an electrical stimulation device, the method comprising:
at a client application executing on a user device, wherein the user device is in communication with the electrical stimulation device:
receiving an input from a user, wherein the input comprises a selection of an electrical stimulation plan, wherein the electrical stimulation plan comprises a set of stimulation parameters;
transmitting the electrical stimulation plan to a processing system associated with the electrical stimulation device;
at the processing system:
checking for each of a set of requests based on the electrical stimulation plan, wherein the set of requests comprises:
a first request, wherein the first request comprises a request for a suspension of stimulation;
a second request, wherein the second request comprises an adjustment of at least one of the set of stimulation parameters; and
a third request, wherein the third request comprises a request for sham stimulation;
determining a modified electrical stimulation plan based on checking for each of the set of requests;
at the electrical stimulation device, providing electrical stimulation based on the modified electrical stimulation plan to the user.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the processing system is onboard the electrical stimulation device.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first request is received from the client application.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the set of stimulation parameters includes a current amplitude.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein in an event that the second request is received, the method further comprises monitoring a contact parameter associated with contact between the electrical stimulation and the user.
6 . The method of claim 5 , further comprising, in an event that the contact parameter is below a predetermined threshold, providing a notification to the user at the client application.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first request is checked prior to the second request, and wherein the second request is checked prior to the third request.
8 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising checking for a fourth request, wherein the fourth request comprises a second adjustment of the set of stimulation parameters.
9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the second adjustment is determined based on a feature of a component of the electrical stimulation device.
10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the component comprises a digital-to-analog converter.
11 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising repeating, at a predetermined frequency:
checking for each of a set of requests;
determining a modified electrical stimulation plan based on checking for each of the set of requests; and
at the electrical stimulation device, providing electrical stimulation based on the modified electrical stimulation plan.
12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the predetermined frequency is at least once every millisecond.
13 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing a visual graphic at the client application, wherein the visual graphic indicates at least one of a set of modified parameters of the modified electrical stimulation plan.
14 . A method for delivering electrical stimulation to a user through an electrical stimulation device, the method comprising:
at the electrical stimulation device, receiving a request for electrical stimulation, wherein the request is associated with an electrical stimulation plan, wherein the electrical stimulation plan comprises a set of stimulation parameters;
at processing system associated with the electrical stimulation device:
receiving the electrical stimulation plan;
checking for each of a set of requests, wherein the set of requests comprises:
a first request, wherein the first request comprises a request for a suspension of stimulation;
a second request, wherein the second request comprises an adjustment of at least one of the set of stimulation parameters; and
a third request, wherein the third request comprises a request for sham stimulation;
determining a modified electrical stimulation plan based on checking for each of the set of requests;
at the electrical stimulation device, providing electrical stimulation based on the modified electrical stimulation plan to the user.
15 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the processing system is onboard the electrical stimulation device.
16 . The method of claim 14 , wherein in an event that the second request is received, the method further comprises monitoring a contact parameter associated with contact between the electrical stimulation device and the user.
17 . The method of claim 16 , further comprising, in an event that the contact parameter is below a predetermined threshold, providing a notification to the user at a client application executing on a user device, wherein the user device is in communication with the electrical stimulation device.
18 . The method of claim 14 , wherein the first request is checked prior to the second request, and wherein the second request is checked prior to the third request.
19 . The method of claim 14 , further comprising checking for a fourth request, wherein the fourth request comprises a second adjustment of the set of stimulation parameters.
20 . The method of claim 19 , wherein the second adjustment is determined based on a feature of a component of the electrical stimulation device.
21 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the predetermined frequency is at least once every millisecond.
