Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Background: Heart failure is the outcome of most cardiovascular diseases. Its prevalence continues to increase annually, which emphasizes the importance of developing therapeutic strategies to prevent adverse outcomes. This article reviews current data on the effect of vagus nerve stimulation on the course of chronic heart failure. Objective: To summarize available literature data on the effect of vagus nerve stimulation on the course of chronic heart failure. Materials and methods: We searched PubMed and eLIBRARY for the relevant information over the last 20 years using the following keywords: vagus nerve, heart failure, stimulation, ejection fraction. The search was performed by titles, abstracts, and keywords. Results: This review revealed that vagus nerve stimulation has favorable effects in patients with heart failure and warrants further careful investigation.
