Vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) has shown promise as an adjunctive therapy for management of cardiac arrhythmias by targeting the cardiac parasympathetic nervous system. VNS has been evaluated in the setting of ischemia-driven ventricular arrhythmias and atrial arrhythmias, as well as a treatment option for heart failure. As better understanding of the complexities of the cardiac autonomic nervous system is obtained, vagal nerve stimulation will likely become a powerful tool in the current cardiovascular therapeutic armamentarium.
通过靶向心脏副交感神经系统,迷走神经刺激(VNS)已显示出作为治疗心律失常辅助疗法的潜力。VNS已在缺血驱动的室性心律失常和房性心律失常的背景下进行了评估,也是心力衰竭的一种治疗选择。随着对心脏自主神经系统复杂性的更深入了解,迷走神经刺激可能会成为当前心血管治疗手段中的一种有力工具。
