A WashU Medicine study found that implanted vagus nerve stimulation devices provide enduring relief for severe treatment-resistant depression, with improvements sustained for at least two years in most responders.

The multicenter RECOVER trial followed nearly 500 participants who previously failed an average of thirteen treatments. Results showed that over 80% of patients who improved after one year maintained those benefits, with 20% of all participants reaching full remission by month 24.

The ongoing study aims to secure federal insurance coverage for the therapy, which is currently cost-prohibitive. The device functions by sending calibrated electrical pulses to the brain via the left vagus nerve.
