The Vivistim® Paired VNS™ System (Vivistim) is intended to be used to stimulate the vagus nerve during rehabilitation therapy in order to reduce upper extremity motor deficits and improve motor function in chronic ischemic stroke patients with moderate to severe arm impairment. Do not use if you have had a bilateral or left cervical vagotomy. Risks may include, but are not limited to pain after surgery, hoarseness, bruising, swelling, coughing and throat irritation. While not observed with Vivistim, infection is a risk associated with surgery. For full safety information, please see www.vivistim.com/safety. Individual results may vary.
