Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for delivering neurostimulation therapies to patients. A titration process is used to gradually increase the stimulation intensity to a desired therapeutic level. Between titration sessions one or more parameters, such as, for example, an acclimation interval, may be adjusted based on the patient's response to the stimulation. This personalized titration process can minimize the amount of time required to complete titration so as to begin delivery of the stimulation at therapeutically desirable levels.
