Position Summary:

advanced technologies and breakthrough treatments provide meaningful solutions for the

General Responsibilities:

As pioneers of the VNS (Vagus Nerve Stimulation) Therapy® system, LivaNova continues to

advance medical device solutions for patients affected by Drug-Resistant Epilepsy (DRE) and

Difficult-to-Treat Depression (DTD). There are 3 million people in the U.S. alone and one on

three people with epilepsy are drug resistant. People with severe seizures have, on average,

a shorter life expectancy and an increased risk of cognitive impairment particularly if the

seizures developed in early childhood. VNS Therapy for DRE is delivered through a device

that sends mild pulses to the vagus nerve at regular intervals throughout the day in an effort

to prevent seizures.
