A first value of an electrical stimulation parameter of an electrical stimulation therapy that resulted in a first physiological response for a patient is identified. The electrical stimulation therapy is delivered at least in part through a lead that is implanted inside the patient. Based on the first value, a limit of a second value of the electrical stimulation parameter that should result in a second physiological response for the patient is determined. An actual second value of the electrical stimulation parameter that actually resulted in the second physiological response for the patient is identified. Based on a comparison of the limit of the second value and the actual second value, an implantation of the lead is evaluated.

An apparatus for assessing user frailty is disclosed. In embodiments, the apparatus includes a housing that defines (or is defined by) a body and a handle coupled to the body. The apparatus includes a force sensor at least partially disposed within the handle. The apparatus further includes an inertial sensor at least partially disposed within the housing. The apparatus may further include a user interface device disposed within a cavity of the body. The user interface device may be coupled to the force sensor and the inertial sensor via one or more signal paths. In embodiments, the user interface device includes a controller with a touchscreen coupled to the controller.

An electronic vapor provision system (EVPS) can include an electronic vapor provision device; at least a first sensor configured to generate information about how firmly a user is holding the device; and a control processor configured to modify one or more operational parameters of the EVPS responsive to the information about how firmly the user is holding the device.
