VNS Algorithm for Advanced Dosing
NCT07725601 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 80
Last updated 2026-07-24
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the standard programming of the VNS device (Control) to a modified programming (Augusta Way) in adults with epilepsy. The main question it aims to answer is:
Does the modified programming of the VNS reduce seizures faster than the standard programming?
Participants in both groups will:
1. Attend up to 3 study visits every 3 months for 2 years
2. Answer questionnaires to assess quality of life and cognitive function
3. Maintain a diary of seizure activity
