1. A system comprising:
a stimulation generator configured to generate stimulation pulses deliverable via at least one electrical lead comprising at least one electrode; and
processing circuitry configured to:
determine a first set of stimulation parameters that define entrainment stimulation pulses configured to entrain electrical activity in a brain of a patient;
control the stimulation generator to generate the entrainment stimulation pulses according to the first set of stimulation parameters;
determine a second set of stimulation parameters that define at least one desynchronization stimulation pulse configured to disrupt at least a portion of electrical activity of the brain entrained by the entrainment stimulation pulses, the second set of stimulation parameters being different from the first set of stimulation parameters; and
subsequent to generating the entrainment stimulation pulses, control the stimulation generator to generate the at least one desynchronization stimulation pulse according to the second set of stimulation parameters.
