Use of Charge Imbalanced Pulses in an Implantable Stimulator to Effect a Pseudo-Constant DC Current Bias |
abstract |
Techniques are described for providing a therapeutic pseudo-constant DC current in an implantable stimulator using pulses whose positive and negative phases are not charge balanced. Such charge imbalanced pulses act to charge any capacitance in the current path between selected electrode nodes, such as the DC-blocking capacitors and/or any inherent capacitance such as those present at the electrode/tissue interface. These charged capacitances act during quiet periods between the pulses to induce a pseudo-constant DC current. Beneficially, these DC currents can be small enough to stay within charge density limits and hence not corrode the electrode or cause tissue damage, and further can be controlled to stay within such limits or for other reasons. Graphical user interface (GUI) aspects for generating the charge imbalanced pulses and for determining and/or controlling the pseudo-constant DC current are also provided. |
