OHSU turns to vagus nerve bioelectric medicine for stroke and arthritis
Original: OHSU uses bioelectric medicine in vagus nerve to help patients heal from stroke, arthritis
Oregon Health & Science University reports using bioelectric medicine that stimulates the vagus nerve to help patients recover from stroke and arthritis. The approach aims to prompt the body's own healing responses through nerve stimulation rather than drugs. Interest is growing around whether vagus nerve therapy could expand treatment options for conditions that currently respond poorly to medication.
Why now: A major medical school announced a promising nerve-stimulation therapy for widespread conditions like stroke and arthritis.
