About

MicroTransponder Inc. is a medical technology company based in Austin, Texas, specializing in neurostimulation therapies for chronic neurological conditions, with a primary focus on stroke rehabilitation. The company has developed the Paired Vagus Nerve Stimulation (Paired VNS™) Platform, which combines vagus nerve stimulation with rehabilitation therapy to enhance neuroplasticity and improve motor function in patients. The flagship product, the Vivistim® Paired VNS™ System, is the first FDA-approved device on this platform. It is designed to stimulate the vagus nerve during rehabilitation, helping chronic ischemic stroke survivors regain upper limb function. Clinical studies show that Vivistim therapy can lead to significant improvements in motor function, offering patients the potential to recover 2-3 times more function compared to traditional stroke therapy. MicroTransponder aims to expand access to this innovative therapy and explore its applications for other chronic neurological conditions.
