Nervus Vagus Stimulation and Cerebral Palsy

Vagus stimulation was applied bilaterally through the ear in a transcutaneous manner. transcutaneous auricular VNS (taVNS) was performed using the Vagustim device. The stimulation was applied for 20 minutes with a pulse width of 300 microseconds, a frequency of 10 Hz, and in a biphasic manner. The electrodes were placed on the concha and tragus parts of the ear, and the current was increased until the participant could feel it.
