Feasibility study on transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation using millimeter waves

Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express, 2021
Objective. Electrical stimulation of the auricular vagus nerve is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique that has been used for various conditions, including depression, epilepsy, headaches, and cerebral ischemia. However, unwanted non-vagal nerve stimulations can occur because of diffused stimulations.

Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) for migraine: an fMRI study

Regional Anesthesia & Pain Medicine, 2020
Background Dysfunction of the thalamocortical connectivity network is thought to underlie the pathophysiology of the migraine. This current study aimed to explore the thalamocortical connectivity changes during 4 weeks of continuous transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) treatment on migraine patients.

Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2019
Summary: Invasive vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an approved treatment for drug-resistant epilepsy. Besides recognized clinical efficacy in about 60% of patients, there are major drawbacks such as invasiveness and common side effects including hoarseness, sore throat, shortness of breath, and coughing.

Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation for epilepsy

Seizure: European Journal of Epilepsy
Several studies have suggested that transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) may be effective for the treatment of epilepsy. However, auricular acupoint therapy (including auricular acupuncture and auricular point-sticking therapy), a method of stimulating the vagus nerve, has been poorly reviewed. This systematic review is the first to categorize

[Mechanism of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation on polycystic ovary syndrome].

Zhen ci yan jiu = Acupuncture research, 2020
Non-invasive transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (ta-VNS) is established on the basis of auricular acupuncture and the principle of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS). The results of the comparative study of 4 indications of VNS show that ta-VNS achieves almost the equivalent effect as VNS.

Brainstem neuronal responses to transcutaneous auricular and cervical vagus nerve stimulation in rats

The Journal of Physiology
AbstractTranscutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) targets subcutaneous axons in the auricular branch of the vagus nerve at the outer ear. Its non‐invasive nature makes it a potential treatment for various disorders. taVNS induces neuromodulatory effects within the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS), and due to its widespread ...

Effects of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation on the P300

Non-invasive transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) has attracted increasing interest as a neurostimulation tool with potential applications in modulating cognitive processes such as attention and memory, possibly through the modulation of the locus–coeruleus noradrenaline system.
