  • tVNS Coma Symposium, Warsaw, Poland

    "tVNS therapy in Comatose Patients"  has been a focus research area in recent years in collaboration with esteemed scientists from various countries. The Coma Symposium brought together notable experts, including Prof. Dr. Halil Özcan, Head of the Psychiatry Department at Erzurum Atatürk University, Prof. Dr. Arshad Majid, Head of Neuroscience and Cerebrovascular Neurology at the University of Sheffield, UK, Prof. Armin Bolz, the scientist who has been developing of the patented tVNS technology from Germany, and Selin Erdoğan Gezen, Global Clinical Director at tVNS Health Gmbh. The symposium hosted the discussions on the use of tVNS in comatose patients, sharing clinical experiences, and exploring the future of this therapy. The meeting was held on November 14-15th, under the organization of the Akogo Foundation, committed to providing care at the highest international standards, employing advanced diagnostic tools and neurorehabilitation techniques, in two dedicated "Alarm Clock" Clinics, the first rehabilitation centers for children and adults, in Poland. The event was a highly productive scientific meeting where the use of tVNS in comatose patients across different countries was discussed, patient grou ps who has the potential to benefit from the therapy were identified, and future scientific collaborations and studies were initiated. Sessions also featured case reports from Turkey by esteemed doctors Assoc. Prof. Dr. Burcu Polat and Prof. Dr. Ercan Gürses , highlighting treatments applied to hypoxic patients. These sessions provided inspiration for future treatment protocols. In the coming days, we look forward to sharing the results of a clinical study on the application of tVNS therapy, with the hope that it will inspire and bring new possibilities. We remain committed to offering hope to patients considered untreatable through non-invasive, scientifically supported therapies. Our deepest gratitude goes to our esteemed doctors and scientists for their invaluable contributions to these efforts. A special thank you to Fundacja Ewy Błaszczyk Akogo? for hosting this impactful event and fostering collaboration to advance pediatric care. Together, we’re working towards brighter possibilities.

  • A real life epilepsy story of Oguzhan: tVNS in Dravet Syndrome and Resistant Epilepsy

    Zeliha Korkmaz, the mother of 7-year-old Oğuzhan, who battles resistant epilepsy and was diagnosed with Dravet syndrome at 4.5 months old, recently shared their transformative journey with tVNS. Oğuzhan endured numerous hospitalizations due to refractory seizures, even undergoing a ketogenic diet that eventually proved ineffective. Following his physician's recommendation, Oğuzhan began using tVNS in January 2022. Since then, the positive impact on his life has been remarkable — experiencing extended seizure-free periods, enhanced cognitive abilities, and an overall improved quality of life. At tVNS, we strive to contribute to a better world for human life by evolving treatments to meet the changing needs of our dynamic world.

Non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation for the treatment of neurological diseases Navigating the world of medical treatments can be overwhelming, especially when faced with persistent and challenging health issues. Whether you’ve been tirelessly seeking effective solutions, or if traditional drug therapies have been unsuccessful, there is another option: tVNS®. The vagus nerve, central to our body’s nervous system, plays a critical role in maintaining homeostasis. tVNS®, or Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation, harnesses the therapeutic potential of this nerve through targeted stimulation of its auricular branch, accessible within the ear. This innovative approach utilizes gentle electrical impulses to modulate the vagus nerve’s activity, encouraging a state of balance across the body’s systems. The result? A reduction in the symptoms of neurological diseases associated with sympathovagal imbalance, achieved through a method that avoids the invasiveness of surgery and the side effects associated with medication. Approved as a Class IIa medical device under the European Medical Device Regulation (MDR), tVNS® sets a new standard in the treatment of neurological conditions, offering a blend of efficacy, safety, and simplicity. tVNS® is indicated to treat the following conditions: Epilepsy Autism Anxiety Migraine Parkinson's Depression Cognitive Impairment Prader-Willi Syndrome Sleep Disorders Crohn's Disease (IBD) Tinnitus Atrial Fibrillation Systematic Sclerosis Why tVNS® ? No Surgery Non-surgical vagus nerve stimulation with full patient control and no invasive- risks Few Side Effects tVNS® has very few side effects compared to drugs and invasive treatments, and easily tolarable.

Epilepsy After a 20 week treatment period, active tVNS® patients recorded an average 34.2% reduction of seizure frequency. Prader-Willi-Syndrome After a treatment period of 12 months, 80% of tVNS® patients recorded a reduction of mean number of outbursts per day of 50%, compared to mean number of outburst per day before treatment. Migraines Treatment with tVNS® led to a reduction of 50% of the frequency of days with migraines after a treatment period of 12 weeks. Depression tVNS® led to a reduction of depression-specific HAMD score of minimum 2-3 points in adult patients when used in parallel with psychopharmacological and psychotherapy treatments after a period of 9 weeks. How does tVNS® work? You can use tVNS® anytime, anywhere. It's easy to use, portable, and discrete. Treatment with tVNS® is characterized by its simplicity and adaptability to everyday life. At its core, tVNS® operates on the principle of neurostimulation, a process that engages the vagus nerve’s capacity to influence various bodily functions and systems. tVNS® stimulates the auricular branch of the vagus nerve (ABVN) through the skin with gentle and precise electrical impulses that propagate therapeutic signals to the brain, first to the brain stem and then to higher centers, aiming to correct dysregulation within the nervous system. The application of tVNS® is designed with the patient in mind: it is easy, portable, and discreet, making it possible to incorporate treatment sessions into your schedule without interruption to your daily tasks. Whether you’re at home, in the office, or traveling, tVNS® provides a consistent and accessible means to manage symptoms of neurological disorders, including the reduction of seizure frequencies in epilepsy, among other conditions. Each session with the tVNS® device is a step towards rebalancing the nervous system, leveraging the natural pathways of the body to foster healing and symptom relief. The device’s ease of use ensures that starting and maintaining a regimen with tVNS® is straightforward, empowering users to take control of their health in a non-intrusive, effective manner. tVNS Healing Stories News from tVNS tVNS Coma Symposium, Warsaw, Poland "tVNS therapy in Comatose Patients" has been a focus research area in recent years in collaboration with esteemed scientists from... tVNS in Austim Pediatric neurology specialist Associate Professor Dr. Barış Ekici shares his insights and experiences with transcutaneous vagus nerve stimu Information on tVNS from PD Dr Ranni von Wrede and Dr Pukrowski from Klinik für Epileptologie, UKB Bonn PD.

  • Tinnitus | tVNS HEALTH

    Tinnitus Tinnitus and Vagus Nerve Stimulation Tinnitus can also be defined as the patient's perception of a sound without an acoustic stimulus. This sound can have different tones, features and characters. The sound most often heard as ringing is sometimes described as humming, bells, wind or whistling, machinery noise, rustling, pulsing sounds. Tinnitus is considered as a symptom rather than a disease and is treated as such. It is the most common symptom of the auditory system. These complaints may be severe enough to cause mental problems or severely impair the quality of life, and in some people, tinnitus may come and go within a few minutes. Clinical studies have shown that vagus nerve stimulation provides an increase in parasympathetic activity, calms the patient, reduces sleep disorders due to tinnitus, and decreases THI (Tinnitus Handicap Inventoy).
