The 10th cranial nerve, the vagus, has parasympathetic effect. It combines autonomic, sensory and motor information from the 4 vagal nuclei and carries them to many internal organs. The afferent fibers of the vagal nerve end in the solitary nucleus in the brainstem, from which it gives many branches to different brain regions.     <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myelinated A and B fibers of the vagus carry somatosensory, motor, and autonomic signals, and this complex system plays a key role in inflammatory, immune, pain, and psychological processes. Neuronal imaging <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It has been determined that when the vagus is stimulated with these methods, neuronal activity occurs in the centers that control sensory and psychological processes related to pain.y\u00f6ntemleri ile vagus uyar\u0131ld\u0131\u011f\u0131nda a\u011fr\u0131 ile ili\u015fkili duyusal ve ruhsal s\u00fcre\u00e7leri kontrol eden merkezlerde n\u00f6ronal aktivitenin olu\u015ftu\u011fu saptanm\u0131\u015ft\u0131r. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vagus nerve stimulation has been shown to be highly effective in treatment-resistant epilepsy, depression, and inflammatory diseases via the multiple systems controlled by the vagus nerve. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vagus stimulation is also effective in the treatment of many painful conditions. Although the exact mechanism of action is not known, regulation of the autonomic and immune systems and reduction of the release of chemical mediators that cause inflammation appear to be the basic physiological mechanisms. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How is Vagus Nerve Pacemaker applied?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vagus Nerve Pacemaker treatment is performed in two different ways. In the first option, an electrode is surgically placed on the Vagus nerve in the neck and connected to a battery source; the electrical currents given from here suppress normal activity in the brain. <\/span>The Vagus Nerve Battery shows its effect by stimulating A and B myelinated fibers. The control of autonomic and inflammatory signals by the vagus allows the control of pain as well as accompanying sleep disorders, depression, and mood changes. It also protects the patient from many chemical drugs and their side effects used for each of these. The total treatment period is planned as 4-8 weeks.     <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another option is to use the Vagus Nerve Stimulation Device externally without the need for surgery. This device, which is attached to the ear, provides electrical stimulation to the vagus nerve and is effective in the treatment of diseases.  <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1622016079265{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column enable_pin=&#8221;enable_pin&#8221; width=&#8221;5\/12&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-md-4&#8243; responsive_css=&#8221;padding_right_medium:7%25&#8243;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner responsive_css=&#8221;margin_bottom_medium:45px&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1608194013763{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1608195737477{margin-bottom: 30px !important;padding-top: 35px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 35px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #f7f8fa !important;border-radius: 5px !important;}&#8221; responsive_css=&#8221;margin_bottom_medium:45px|padding_right_medium:35px|padding_left_medium:35px&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1608195709893{border-top-width: 1px !important;border-right-width: 1px !important;border-bottom-width: 1px !important;border-left-width: 1px !important;padding-top: 20px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;border-left-color: rgba(112,112,112,0.15) !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: rgba(112,112,112,0.15) !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6002,"parent":6979,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-6988","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/profdrercangurses.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6988","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/profdrercangurses.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/profdrercangurses.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/profdrercangurses.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/profdrercangurses.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6988"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/profdrercangurses.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6988\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/profdrercangurses.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6979"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/profdrercangurses.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6002"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/profdrercangurses.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6988"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
