A method of treating a neurological disorder in a patient. In some embodiments, the method includes obtaining a neurological event detection signal, obtaining a cardiac event detection signal, analyzing the timing relationships between the detected neurological and cardiac events to identify matched events, using the matched events to determine whether the cardiac event detection signal facilitates detection of neurological events, delivering a therapy to the patient in response to a cardiac event if the cardiac event detection signal is determined to facilitate detection of neurological events, and changing the therapy delivered based on sensed brain signals from the patient.
