Zusammenfassung:	Systems and method may be used for interfacing with a patient. Systems may include a plurality of electrodes in electrical communication with a processor. The processor may determine a relative impedance difference between a first electrode and a second electrode, and apply a sub-therapeutic stimulation pulse to one of the first and second electrodes to adjust the relative impedance difference therebetween. Systems may include a processor capable of one or both of providing therapeutic stimulation to a patient via at least one electrode, and receiving electrical signals indicative of the patient's physiological activity. In some examples, the processor may simultaneously provide therapeutic stimulation to a patient and receive electrical signals from the patient indicative of the patient's physiological activity.
