Learning Objectives:
Understand the Role of the Vagus Nerve in Cancer Physiology: Describe how vagus nerve activity influences inflammation, immune response, and stress physiology in cancer patients.
Explain the Relationship Between Vagal Tone and Cancer Outcomes: Identify how low heart rate variability (HRV) and vagal tone are correlated with cancer progression, fatigue, and emotional distress.
Evaluate the Therapeutic Potential of Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS): Examine current research supporting VNS (including technologies like tVNS as an adjunct therapy in cancer care for reducing inflammation and improving quality of life.
Demonstrate Non-Invasive Techniques to Stimulate the Vagus Nerve: Apply techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, humming, and cold exposure to activate the parasympathetic nervous system and improve HRV.
Assess the Role of Biofeedback Devices in Enhancing Autonomic Regulation: Analyze how tools like tVNS use HRV biofeedback and guided protocols to improve vagal tone and support holistic cancer treatment strategies.
