About This Trial
Transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the auricular vagus nerve (TENS) is a promising method of neuromodulation of the autonomic nervous system in patients with various pathologies. The use of this method requires the determination of a reliable biomarker of successful activation of the vagus nerve using TENS. Currently, most studies focus on the assessment of heart rate variability (HRV) as a …
