Randomized Controlled TrialLow-intensity transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation reduces postoperative ileus after laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer: a randomized controlled trial.
Postoperative ileus (POI) is thought to result from a disrupted sympathetic/parasympathetic balance caused by trauma or surgery. Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) is a non-invasive technique involving stimulation of the vagal auricular branch, leading to autonomic regulation and reduced inflammation. Here, the effects of low-intensity transcutaneous auricular vagal stimulation on POI after laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer were investigated. ⋯ Low-intensity transcutaneous auricular vagal stimulation reduced POI after laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer.
