Effects of non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation on attack frequency over time and expanded response rates in patients with chronic cluster headache: a post hoc analysis of the randomised, controlled PREVA study
Gaul C, Magis D, Liebler E, Straube A
The Journal of Headache and Pain · 2017
Key finding
Post hoc analysis showed nVNS plus standard of care progressively lowered weekly attack frequency and yielded significantly higher 25%, 50% and 75% responder rates than standard of care alone.
