Abstract

Systems, devices, and techniques for adjusting electrical stimulation based on a posture state of a patient are described. For example, processing circuitry is configured to control delivery of a first informed stimulation pulse defined by at least a first value of an informed stimulation parameter, control delivery of a control stimulation pulse to a patient, the control stimulation pulse defined by at least a first value of a control stimulation parameter, determine a characteristic value of the ECAP signal elicited from the control stimulation pulse, receive, from a sensor, a posture state signal representing a posture state of the patient, and adjust, based on the characteristic value of the ECAP signal and the posture state signal, the first value of the informed stimulation parameter to a second value of the informed stimulation parameter.
