Heart rate variability and vagus nerve stimulation in epilepsy patients

Heart rate variability and vagus nerve stimulation in epilepsy patients

Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) exerts a cortical modulating effect through its diffuse projections, especially involving cerebral structures related to autonomic regulation. The influence of VNS on cardiovascular autonomic function in drug-resistant epilepsy patients is still debated. We aimed to eva...
