Restoring a past configuration to a sound processor of a cochlear implant system

A method comprising:

• maintaining, by a cochlear implant fitting subsystem, a configuration history including data representative of a plurality of past configurations of a sound processor of a cochlear implant system;
• displaying, by the cochlear implant fitting subsystem in a graphical user interface, a table that includes a plurality of rows representing each of the past configurations of the sound processor, a particular row in the table represents a past configuration included in the plurality of past configurations of the sound processor and identifies a plurality of different sound processing programs previously loaded in a plurality of slots within the sound processor during the past configuration;
• displaying, by the cochlear implant fitting subsystem, a graphical depiction of the sound processor together with the table in the graphical user interface, the graphical depiction of the sound processor including a graphical indicator that represents a current configuration of the sound processor and that identifies one or more sound processing programs currently loaded into one or more of the plurality of slots within the sound processor during the current configuration;
• receiving, by the cochlear implant fitting subsystem, user input requesting that the past configuration as a whole be restored to the sound processor, the user input comprising a drag-and-drop operation in which the user drags the particular row to the graphical indicator included in the graphical depiction representing the sound processor;
• utilizing, by the cochlear implant fitting subsystem in response to the user input, data representative of the past configuration in the configuration history to restore the past configuration to the sound processor by loading the plurality of previously loaded sound processing programs into the plurality of slots within the sound processor in place of the one or more currently loaded sound processing programs;
• and
• displaying, by the cochlear implant fitting subsystem in the graphical depiction of the sound processor and in response to the utilizing of the data to restore the past configuration to the sound processor, an additional graphical indicator indicating that the past configuration of the sound processor has been restored to the sound processor.

A system comprising:

• a configuration history facility that maintains a configuration history including data representative of a plurality of past configurations of a sound processor of a cochlear implant system;
• a user interface facility communicatively coupled to the configuration history facility and that
• displays, in a graphical user interface, a table that includes a plurality of rows representing each of the past configurations of the sound processor and a graphical depiction representing the sound processor, wherein
• a particular row in the table represents a past configuration included in the plurality of past configurations of the sound processor and identifies a plurality of different sound processing programs previously loaded in a plurality of slots within the sound processor during the past configuration, and
• the graphical depiction representing the sound processor includes a graphical indicator that represents a current configuration of the sound processor and that identifies one or more sound processing programs currently loaded into one or more of the plurality of slots within the sound processor during the current configuration, and
• receives, by way of the graphical user interface, user input requesting that the past configuration as a whole be restored to the sound processor, the user input including a drag-and-drop operation in which a user drags the particular row to the graphical indicator included in the graphical depiction representing the sound processor;
• and
• a fitting facility communicatively coupled to the configuration history facility and the user interface facility and that utilizes, in response to the user input, data representative of the past configuration in the configuration history to direct a restoration of the past configuration to the sound processor by loading the plurality of previously loaded sound processing programs into the plurality of slots within the sound processor in place of the one or more currently loaded sound processing programs.
