Details.
A neurostimulation service combining an implanted vagus nerve stimulation device with in-clinic physical therapy to improve upper limb function for stroke survivors. The device is implanted during an outpatient procedure, followed by a one-week recovery and continued in-clinic rehabilitation. At-home therapy can use a magnet activator during rehabilitation exercises and routine activities. Intended for chronic ischemic stroke survivors who have participated in physical therapy but continue to experience moderate to severe hand and arm impairment. Surgery and rehabilitation are covered through most insurances.
