Vagus nerve stimulation for drug‐resistant epilepsy and predictors for seizure freedom: A nationwide multicenter cohort study in Mexico

Vagus nerve stimulation was associated with substantial seizure frequency reduction, lower morbidity, and less healthcare utilization, with a favorable safety profile. Baseline seizure burden emerged as the key predictor of seizure freedom and may guide patient selection, supporting earlier vagus nerve stimulation consideration in drug-resistant epilepsy.
