You may qualify if:

  • Age ≥18 years at AspireSR® device implantation.
  • VNS device AspireSR® implantation for the first time or battery change from a previous model to AspireSR® at least 24 months prior to the start of retrospective data collection from medical records.
  • Subjects for whom written informed consent has been provided for researcher access to their medical records and extraction of data from HES (if the subject is living and has capacity to consent) or advice from a consultee (if the subject is living but lacks capacity to consent).
  • Subjects with available medical history for at least 24 months prior to Aspire SR® implantation.

You may not qualify if:

  • Living subjects for whom consent for researcher access to medical records and extraction of data from HES has not been obtained.
  • Deceased subjects.
