Vagus Nerve Stimulation: A Promising Treatment for Epilepsy, Depression, and Other Neurological Disorders

The vagus nerve is a long nerve that runs from the brainstem to the abdomen. It plays a role in regulating many bodily functions, including heart rate, blood pressure, and digestion. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a medical procedure that involves implanting a device that sends electrical pulses to the vagus nerve. This therapy has been shown to be effective in treating a variety of neurological disorders, including epilepsy, depression, and migraine. VNS therapy is a safe and effective treatment for a variety of neurological disorders. It is a minimally invasive procedure that has the potential to improve the quality of life for many patients.

Segment Analysis:

The global vagus nerve stimulation market is categorized into six notable segments based on product type, biomaterial, application, patient type, end user, and distribution channel.

  • Based on product type, the market is segmented into implantable VNS devices and external VNS devices. Implantable VNS devices segment is expected to dominate the market with 64.66% market share as it provides efficacy benefits in small studies in refractory migraine and cluster headaches.
  • Based on biomaterial, the market is segmented into ceramics, metallic, and polymeric. Metallic segment is expected to dominate the market with 54.64% market share due to its high strength, high fracture toughness, hardness, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility.
  • Based on application, the market is segmented into pain management, epileptic seizures, obesity management, depression and anxiety, and others. Epileptic seizures segment is expected to dominate the market with 48.26% market share due to rise in brain injuries, neurodevelopmental problems, and genetic predispositions.
  • Based on patient type, the market is segmented into adults, pediatrics, and geriatrics. Adults segment is expected to dominate the market with a 60.82% market share due to the increased prevalence of neurological disorders.
  • Based on end user, the market is segmented into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and specialty centers. Specialty centers segment is expected to dominate the market with 51.09% market share due to the increasing application areas and the rising number of government initiatives.

The hospitals segment will dominate the end user segment of the vagus nerve stimulation market

The hospitals segment will emerge as the dominating segment end user segment. This is because of the growing number of hospitals in the market especially in the developing economies. Further, growth and expansion of research development services on a global scale will further bolster the growth of this segment.

  • Based on distribution channel, the market is segmented into direct tender, retail sales, and others. Direct tender segment is expected to dominate the market with 55.46% market share as it creates opportunities and competition in the market and provides a high level of transparency, and distribution of the medical devices are the factors that are expected to drive the market growth.

The direct tender segment will dominate the distribution channel segment of the vagus nerve stimulation market

The direct tender segment will emerge as the dominating segment under distribution channel. This is because of the growing number of infrastructural development activities in the market especially in the developing economies. Further, growth and expansion of the healthcare industry all around the globe will further bolster the growth of this segment.

Vagus Nerve Stimulation Market

Market Development

  • In 2021, MicroTransponder Inc. announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had approved the MicroTransponder Vivistim Paired VNS System (Vivistim System), a first-of-its-kind, drug-free rehabilitation system intended to treat moderate to severe upper extremity motor deficits associated with chronic ischemic stroke. The Vivistim System is a small, implantable device that delivers mild electrical pulses to the vagus nerve, which helps to improve movement and function in the affected arm. After receiving FDA approval, MicroTransponder began commercializing the Vivistim System in the United States. The company has since reported strong sales of the device, with revenue from Vivistim sales increasing by 50% in the first quarter of 2023.
  • In 2022, Healthtech startup Pulsetto launched a neuromodulation device that stimulates the vagus nerve. The Pulsetto device is a small, wearable device that delivers mild electrical pulses to the vagus nerve, which helps to improve mood, reduce stress, and promote relaxation. The Pulsetto device is based on the principle of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), which is a minimally invasive therapy that has been shown to be effective in treating a variety of conditions, including epilepsy, depression, and anxiety. VNS works by stimulating the vagus nerve, which is a major nerve that runs from the brain to the stomach.
  • In 2019, Electrocore Inc. received FDA approval for gammaCore (nVNS), an nVNS device that is used to treat migraine headaches. The gammaCore device is a small, handheld device that delivers a short burst of electrical stimulation to the vagus nerve. The stimulation is designed to block the transmission of pain signals to the brain. The gammaCore device is a non-invasive alternative to traditional migraine treatments, such as medication and surgery. The device is easy to use and can be used at home or on the go. Electrocore has reported that the gammaCore device has been well-received by patients, and the company is working to expand the device's availability to patients worldwide.
