Why the study?
Does vagus nerve stimulation responsiveness depend on baseline beta-blocker dose in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction?
Does vagus nerve stimulation responsiveness depend on baseline beta-blocker dose in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction?
Vagus nerve stimulation responsiveness in HFrEF patients is independent of their baseline beta-blocker dose.
In the ANTHEM-HF study, VNS responsiveness appeared to be independent of the baseline BB dose administered.
