3.3.2 VNS Pairing Therapy Overview
The second tab, VNS Pairing Therapy, is used to actually deliver therapy and assign the
correlating rehabilitation task. It allows the therapist to either:
• trigger the delivery of stimulation so that stimulation can be synchronized with a specific
rehabilitation movement using the On-Demand Mode (see Section 5.1: On-Demand
Mode Menu for more detail), or
• deliver automatic stimulation for a set period of time (stimulate throughout a therapy
session using the Entire Session VNS Scheduler mode – see Section 5.2: Entire
Session VNS Scheduler for more detail).
3.3.3 Patient Log File Overview
The third tab, Patient Log File, allows the physician or therapist to review on the computer
screen or print out specific saved settings that were utilized during the rehabilitation session. For
example, the therapist can review each stimulation usage for a given task. See Section 8
Patient Log File for more detail.
3.3.4 On-Demand Mode Overview
The fourth tab, On-Demand Mode, allows the physician or therapist to set the type of triggering
mechanism for on-demand therapy and its settings. See Section 5.1: On-Demand Mode Menu
for more detail.
3.3.5 Entire Session VNS Scheduler Overview
The Entire Session VNS Scheduler menu allows the physician or therapist to program the
therapy setting for an entire session without the need for individual triggering. See Section 5.2:
Entire Session VNS Scheduler for more detail.
3.3.6 Independent Mode
The Independent Mode menu allows the physician or therapist to program the stimulation to be
delivered independent of user (physician, therapist, or patient) activation. It works similarly to
the Entire Session VNS Scheduler menu otherwise. Generally, it is not recommended to use
this mode. Contact MicroTransponder if you would like to use this mode (Section 18:
Information and Support).
3.3.7 Study
The Study menu is useful if a clinical study is being conducted at the clinic. It allows the
physician or therapist to administer therapy based on a subject’s treatment group. This menu is
password protected. Contact MicroTransponder if you would like to use this mode (Section 18:
Information and Support).
