Device typeAnalgesic periauricular vagus nerve percutaneous electrical stimulator: A body-worn electronic device intended for vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) applied close to auricular peripheral nerves to achieve remote pain relief mediated by central nervous system (CNS) pathways and structures [e.g., brainstem activation]; it may be used to relieve chronic pain (e.g., back pain, cervical syndrome, migraine) or acute pain (e.g., post-operative pain). It consists of an electrical pulse generator with minimally-invasive electrodes intended to be applied to the auricle by a clinical professional. This is a single-use device.
