Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved therapy, which involves stimulation of vagus nerve with the help of stimulator that provides electric impulses to vagus nerve. Vagus nerve stimulator is widely used in the treatment of epilepsy, depression, cluster headache, migraine, asthma, bronchoconstriction, exercise-induced bronchospasm, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), gastric motility disorder, and irritable bowel syndrome. Currently, there are two types of vagus nerve stimulator present in the market- implantable vagus nerve device and external vagus nerve device. Implantable devices are implanted inside the body surgically. However, the external devices are nob-invasive and are used outside the body
Key Players Profiled in the Vagus Nerve Stimulators MarketReport are as follows: ElectroCore, Inc., LivaNova, PLC, SetPoint Medical Corporation, MicroTransponder, Inc., Beijing PINS Medical Co., Ltd., Parasym Ltd., Nervana, LLC, and tVNS Technologies GmbH.
In July 2017, electroCore, Inc. launched gammaCore (non-invasive vagus nerve stimulator) for acute treatment of pain associated with episodic cluster headache in adult patients in the U.S. gammaCore is a non-invasive, hand-held medical device applied at the neck and sends gentle, patented electrical stimulation through the skin to activate the vagus nerve, resulting in the reduction of pain.
In June 2017, LivaNova Plc. received the U.S. FDA approval for its VNS therapy system for treatment of patients as young as four years of age with partial onset seizures that are refractory to antiepileptic medications.
Approval and launch of novel products in market is also expected to support the vagus nerve stimulators market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in June 2017, electroCore, Inc. received the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance to market a newer version of gammaCore (non-invasive vagus nerve stimulator) – the gammaCore-S – for acute treatment of pain associated with episodic cluster headache (eCH) in adult patients.
Furthermore, in February 2019, the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) finalized its national coverage determination (NCD) for the LivaNova Plc.’s vagus nerve stimulation therapy (VNS Therapy) System for treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Such favorable reimbursements for VNS devices for depression treatment is also expected to increase its adoption and drive vagus nerve stimulators market growth
