Article Abstract
VNS did not significantly improve seizure frequency, severity, adaptive behavior, or the EEG during the first year of treatment for the group as a whole, although 4 children (27%) had a worthwhile reduction in seizure frequency. There were significant improvements in perceived treatment side effects and general behavior.
