| Popis | Vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) can be indicated in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy, who are not eligible for resective epilepsy surgery. In VNS therapy, the responder rate (i.e., percentage of subjects experiencing ?50% seizure reduction) is ~50%. At the moment, there is no widely-accepted possibility to predict VNS efficacy in a particular patient based on pre-implantation data, which can lead to unnecessary surgery and improper allocation of financial resources. The principal aim of PRediction of vagal nerve stimulation EfficaCy In drug-reSistant Epilepsy (PRECISE) study is to verify the predictability of VNS efficacy by analysis of pre-implantation routine electroencephalogram (EEG). |
