Investigating the Effect of Short Term Responsive VNS Therapy on Sleep Quality Using Automatic Sleep Staging

Conclusion: These results indicate that VNS treatment can reduce the epileptiform activities and thus help in achieving better sleep quality for patients with epilepsy. Significance: The proposed approach can be used to investigate the effect of long-term VNS therapy on sleep quality.
