| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The worldwide prevalence of heart failure that is the final pathway for various cardiovascular diseases is rising with the aging populations, a growing incidence of obesity, and significant healthcare improvements. Myocardial infarction is the most common underlying disease of heart failure, and it has been an important issue how the onset of heart failure is prevented after myocardial infarction. In this study, we developed short-term vagus nerve stimulation therapy for the treatment of ventricular remodeling and arrhythmias after acute myocardial infarction.
Short-term (3days) vagus nerve stimulation after reperfusion therapy reduced myocardial infarction size. Our intravascular vagus nerve stimulation catheter enables less invasive vagus nerve stimulation after acute myocardial infarction.
