1. Introduction

Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an FDA-approved treatment for both pharmacoresistant depression and epilepsy and can produce clinically meaningful antidepressant and anti-seizure effects (Nemeroff et al., 2006[1]; Johnson and Wilson, 2018[2]). More than 100,000 VNS devices had been implanted in more than 70,000 patients globally by 2013 (Labiner and Ahern, 2007[3]). The implantable device consists of an electrode, which is wrapped around the left vagus nerve, and an implantable unit, positioned below the collarbone and containing the battery and pulse generator.

Device implantation is predominantly performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthetic, but some patients may require overnight stay if extended observation is necessary. Despite being a minimally invasive procedure, the surgery is inherently risky due to the location of imp...
