Numerous preclinical studies demonstrate that vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) paired with
motor rehabilitation improves functional recovery after neural injuries such as stroke …

Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) paired with motor rehabilitation enhances recovery of
function after neurological injury in rats and humans. This effect is ascribed to VNS …

After damage to the central nervous system, caused by traumatic injury or ischemia,
plasticity becomes critically important for functional recovery. When this inherent capacity to …

Background Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) paired with forelimb training drives robust,
specific reorganization of movement representations in the motor cortex. The mechanisms …

Abstract Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is one of the largest health problems in the United
States, and affects nearly 2 million people every year. The effects of TBI, including weakness …

Pairing vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) with rehabilitation has emerged as a potential
strategy to improve recovery after neurological injury, an effect ascribed to VNS-dependent …

Advanced age is associated with a higher incidence of stroke and worse functional
outcomes. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) paired with rehabilitative training has emerged as …

Neural plasticity is widely believed to support functional recovery following brain damage.
Vagus nerve stimulation paired with different forelimb movements causes long-lasting map …

Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) delivered during motor rehabilitation enhances recovery
from a wide array of neurological injuries and was recently approved by the US FDA for …
