- W2896519539 abstract "Intrathecal (IT) Baclofen is beneficial for spasticity, but if pumps become infected necessitating removal, baclofen withdrawal is difficult to manage and life-threatening. Furthermore there is no consistency between dosing and severity of withdrawal. Case reports detail full baclofen withdrawal at dosages of 260 μg/day.To demonstrate that in patients on stable IT baclofen for prolonged periods, externalizing a patient's original IT pump is a safe, effective way to wean IT doses.Here, we describe a technique of continuing IT baclofen when urgent pump removal is needed. Specifically, we remove the infected pump. Then using a new or existing lumbar drain based on extent of infection, we reconnect the pump after cleaning with betadine and administer therapy externally during IT weaning.Hundred forty seven baclofen pumps were implanted or replaced within four years. Infections occurred in seven patients. We utilized this technique in five of seven patients. Mean IT dose at time of explant was 400.5 ± 285.3 μg/day. We titrated the dose by 20-50% per day based on clinical response over a mean of 6.2 ± 1.3 days. The catheter was removed at bedside once weaning was complete. No patients had any signs of withdrawal, excluding minimal spasticity increases while optimizing oral treatment.Here, we show preliminary evidence that an externalized IT pump is an effective means of weaning IT baclofen when infection of the pump occurs. This treatment strategy warrants further investigation, but appears to be a safe and effective.Dr. Pilitsis is a consultant for Medtronic, Boston Scientific, Nevro, Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Neurobridge Therapeutics, and Abbott and receives grant support from Medtronic, Boston Scientific, Abbott, Nevro, Jazz Pharmaceuticals, GE Global Research and NIH 1R01CA166379.
