Design and validation of a closed-loop, motor-activated auricular vagus nerve stimulation (MAAVNS) system for neurorehabilitation

Background: Studies have found that pairing vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) with motor activity accelerates cortical reorganization. This synchronous pairing may enhance motor recovery. Objective: To develop and validate a motor-activated auricular vagus nerve stimulation (MAAVNS) system as a potentia...
