Reorientation of patient posture states for posture-responsive therapy

This invention describes a medical system that delivers therapy based on a patient's body position. It uses a sensor to detect a specific posture and then continuously updates its understanding of that posture, for instance, by refining a "posture cone" that defines the acceptable range for that position. This allows the system to adapt to subtle changes in how a patient holds a posture over time.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread, low-power wearable sensors and advanced machine learning for real-time posture analysis. Today, these technologies make continuous, adaptive refinement of posture states for therapy much more practical and precise.
