Learning Disabilities (Mentally Retarded or Developmentally Delayed Patients)

 

 VNS Therapy has demonstrated significant success in treating patients with learning disability and epilepsy.1

A recently published article in Neurology reported that 70.5% of all the paediatric patients included in the VNS Therapy Patient Registry had learning disabilities. Sixty-one percent of the paediatric patients treated with VNS Therapy had at least a 50% reduction in seizure frequency after 12 months.1
