La estimulaci\u00f3n del nervio vago o estimulaci\u00f3n vagal (VNS) es un tratamiento m\u00e9dico que consiste en la estimulaci\u00f3n mediante impulsos el\u00e9ctricos del nervio vago. Este nervio es responsable de conectar los impulsos el\u00e9ctricos que manda el cerebro a ciertas partes del cuerpo.
\n<\/p>\n

\"VNS\"<\/p>\n

Por ello, el VNS se utiliza como tratamiento para ciertos tipos de epilepsia porque ayuda a controlar el tipo de actividad del cerebro que conduce a padecer una crisis, mediante un peque\u00f1o generador de est\u00edmulos el\u00e9ctricos que se implanta bajo la piel en el t\u00f3rax del paciente.<\/p>\n

El generador puede ser controlado por el propio paciente mediante un im\u00e1n que se le proporciona. Con \u00e9l obtiene control adicional de las convulsiones. Manteniendo brevemente el im\u00e1n sobre el generador cuando se prev\u00e9 una crisis, \u00e9sta puede ser detenida o acortada en duraci\u00f3n o intensidad. Asimismo, el im\u00e1n tambi\u00e9n puede utilizarse para detener temporalmente la estimulaci\u00f3n de la Terapia VNS – por ejemplo, cuando se hace ejercicio.<\/p>\n

Antes de someterse al tratamiento de estimulaci\u00f3n del nervio vago, el especialista le realizar\u00e1 toda una serie de pruebas para determinar el lugar exacto d\u00f3nde colocar el generador, entre ellas un electrocardiograma (ECG) para poder estudiar la actividad el\u00e9ctrica del coraz\u00f3n y probablemente otras pruebas diagn\u00f3sticas pre-quir\u00fargicas.<\/p>\n

El procedimiento de colocaci\u00f3n del generador se suele realizar bajo anestesia general y no suele tardar m\u00e1s de un par de horas. Un cirujano experimentado debe hacer dos peque\u00f1as incisiones, una en el pecho para colocar el generador y otra en el cuello para conectarlo con el nervio vago.<\/p>\n
