A neural stimulation system responsive to collateral neural activity that may arise in association with a neural stimulation procedure includes a stimulation interface configured to deliver stimulation signals to a target neural population, a monitoring interface positioned to receive signals corresponding to a neural activity within the target neural population, a stimulus unit coupled to deliver stimulation singals to the stimulation interface, and a sensing unit coupled to the monitoring device and the stimulus unit. The neural stimulation procedure may be directed toward rehabilitating, restoring, and/or enhancing one or more neural functions by facilitating and/or effectuating a neuroplastic change or reorganization; and/or affecting a neurological condition that exists on a continuous or essentially continuous basis absent the stimulation procedure. The sensing unit determines whether evidence of an collateral neural activity exists, whereupon the stimulus unit attempts to abate the collateral neural activity.

Système de stimulation neurale réagissant à l'activité neurale collatérale qui peut apparaître en association avec une opération de stimulation neurale. Il peut comprendre une interface de stimulation configurée pour émettre des signaux de stimulation à destination d'une population neurale cible, une interface de surveillance placée pour recevoir les signaux correspondant à une activité neurale à l'intérieur de la population neurale cible, et une unité de détection couplée au dispositif de surveillance et à l'unité de stimulation. L'opération de stimulation neurale peut être destinée à la réhabilitation, la restauration et/ou l'amélioration d'une ou de plusieurs fonctions neurales en facilitant et/ou en effectuant un changement ou une réorganisation neuroplastique et/ou visant un état neurologique qui existe sur une base continue ou sensiblement continue, absent de l'opération de stimulation. L'unité de détection détermine s'il existe une preuve de l'existence d'une activité neurale collatérale, après quoi l'unité de stimulation essaie de faire cesser l'activité neurale collatérale.
