Abstract
The invention provides a system for inhibition or treatment of an aberrant neurological event in a subject. The system comprises: one or more detectors; a controller; and one or more stimulators of the vagus nerve. The invention also provides a method for treating and preventing epileptic seizures and the onset or pre-onset of epileptic seizures. The method includes the steps of: collecting signals from each of one or more detector indicating the presence of a repetitive movement; analyzing signals received from the one or more detector to determine the intensity of the stimulation of the auricular branch of the vagus nerve (ABVN) required to control, moderate or prevent current and future repetitive movements; and when required, signaling one or more stimulator to stimulate the ABVN so that the repetitive motion ceases using the determined stimulation intensities.
