VNS in children : more than just seizure reduction [PDF]
This dissertation aims to gain more insight into the effects of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) in children with hard-to-treat epilepsy. VNS appears to be both a tolerable and safe form of treatment. Predictors of a favourable outcome with VNS therapy were
