Stochastic vagus nerve stimulation affects acute heart rate dynamics in rats
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an approved therapy for treatment of epilepsy and depression. While also shown to be promising in several preclinical and clinical studies to treat cardiovascular diseases, optimal therapeutic stimulation paradigms are still under investigation. Traditionally, parameters such as frequency, current, and duty cycle are used to adjust the efficacy of VNS therapy. T...
متن کاملIntermittent Vagus Nerve Stimulation Reflexively Modulates Heart Rate Variability in Rats with Chronic Ischemic Heart Failure
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the developed world. Despite major strides made in the past decade regarding the treatment and prevention of heart disease, cardiac injury due to acute myocardial infarct (MI) remains a difficult and complicated problem to solve. When enough tissue damage occurs in the myocardium, the ability of the heart to circulate blood is reduced and the organ...
متن کاملEffects of short and prolonged transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation on heart rate variability in healthy subjects.
The vagus nerve is strategically located in the body, and has multiple homeostatic and health-promoting effects. Low vagal activity predicts onset and progression of diseases. These are the reasons to activate this nerve. This study examined the effects of transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (t-VNS) on a main index of vagal activity, namely heart rate variability (HRV). In Study 1, we compar...
متن کاملVagus nerve stimulation therapy
Over the past 5 years, and especially within the last year, there has been a rapid expansion of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)-related preclinical research, as well as clinical studies in indications other than epilepsy. The research advances in understanding VNS are occurring in the midst of a blossoming of other forms of therapeutic brain stimulation, such as electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), t...
