Abstract

An implantable neurostimulator adapted to provide adaptive electrical brain stimulation includes a detection subsystem for isolating an electrographic signal characteristic and a stimulation system for applying an adaptive stimulation signal based at least in part upon the electrographic signal characteristic and correlated with the electrographic signal. Undesired learning of and acclimation to stimulation characteristics are avoided and stimulation efficacy is improved by adapting or otherwise varying the adaptive stimulation signal in relation to the electrographic signal.
