Patent 11648402 was granted and assigned to Medtronic on May, 2023 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
In one example, the disclosure describes a method comprising receiving, by processing circuitry, information indicative of one or more evoked compound action potential (ECAP) signals. The one or more ECAP signals are sensed by at least one electrode carried by a medical lead. The processing circuitry determining that at least one characteristic value of the one or more ECAP signals is outside of an expected range. Responsive to determining that the at least one characteristic value of the one or more ECAP signals is outside of the expected range, the processing circuitry performs a lead integrity test for the medical lead.
