Vagus nerve stimulation as a potential treatment for acute asthmatic bronchoconstriction: a systematic review

ObjectiveVagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a therapeutic option for diseases such as epilepsy and depression. Given that the smooth muscle of the bronchi is innervated by the vagus nerve, VNS could aid in treating pathologies of the respiratory system involving a bronchoconstrictive component. The ai...
