1. A method of managing a plurality of patients using a management device, comprising:
receiving, via a processor, titration parameters for the plurality of patients, wherein each of the plurality of patients is implanted with an implantable neurostimulator configured to deliver neurostimulation comprising a plurality of stimulation parameters to the patient, and wherein the titration parameters are received during an initial interrogation of the implantable neurostimulator prior to each of the patients undergoing titration of the neurostimulation, the titration for a given patient comprising incrementally increasing, based on the titration parameters, at least one of the plurality of stimulation parameters until the neurostimulation for the given patient reaches a final set of stimulation parameters, the titration parameters defining at least increment values for incrementally increasing the at least one of the plurality of stimulation parameters;
determining, via the processor, a status of a progression of the titration of the neurostimulation for each patient based on the titration parameters, wherein the status of the progression of the titration includes a current stimulation parameter for the given patient;
determining, via the processor, a priority of each patient based on the status of the progression of the titration for the given patient;
generating, via the processor, a user interface visually indicating the priority and the current stimulation parameter of each patient;
determining, via the processor, an updated status of the progression of the titration for each patient based on the titration parameters, wherein the updated status of the progression of the titration includes an updated stimulation parameter for the given patient;
determining, via the processor, an updated priority of each patient based on the updated status of the progression of the titration for the given patient;
generating, via the processor, an updated user interface visually indicating the updated priority and the updated stimulation parameter of each patient;
updating, via the processor based on input received via the user interface, a titration hold associated with the titration parameters for a selected patient, the titration hold being an intermediate hold point established during a setup of the titration; and
transmitting, via the processor, the update of the titration hold to the implantable neurostimulator of the selected patient,
wherein the processor is capable of determining the status and the updated status while the given patient is undergoing the titration of the neurostimulation without communicating with the implantable neurostimulator of the given patient.
