ElectroCore, Inc. (ECOR, Financial) has unveiled promising findings at the 2025 International Brain Injury Association World Congress, showcasing the efficacy of their gammaCore device in treating symptoms related to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). The non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation technology, or nVNS, demonstrated significant benefits in managing concussive symptoms, as presented by Dr. Michael Ament of Cherry Creek Neurology.
In a study that included 102 mTBI patients, the adjunctive application of gammaCore led to notable improvements in 22 out of 27 assessed symptoms. Key areas of symptom relief included post-traumatic headache, nausea, dizziness, and depression. These findings highlight the potential of nVNS as a therapeutic option for individuals with mTBI.
Interestingly, the research outcomes indicated no significant variance in symptom improvement between patients with recent injuries and those who sustained injuries further in the past. This suggests that the gammaCore device could offer benefits irrespective of the time elapsed since the trauma occurred, expanding its potential applicability.
