Intrathecal baclofen therapy.
Copyright policy )Intrathecal baclofen therapy.
Intrathecal baclofen therapy has been used in the treatment of severe, intractable spasticity resistant to oral agents in brain and spinal cord injury since 1992. A successful trial of intrathecal baclofen infusion administered with a test dose of baclofen injection via a lumbar puncture precedes the therapy and those who respond favorably in the standard screening test go on to receive intrathecal baclofen pump therapy long-term. 1,2
