摘要：
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) therapy has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for treatment-resistant depression in patients 18 years of age and older and for intractable epilepsy. Long-term studies suggest VNS has an antidepressant effect in adults. This paper reviews the available clinical data for VNS therapy. Its potential application for treatment-resistant depression in adolescents and children is also discussed. Copyright © 2008 by Current Medicine Group LLC.
