Drug pumps for treatment of neurologic diseases and pain.

R D Penn.   

Abstract

Implanted drug pumps provide a new way to infuse medication chronically to the nervous system in a selective fashion. They have been of value in treating pain of cancer and spasticity through spinal subarachnoid catheters. Treatment of Alzheimer's disease is currently being investigated using intraventricular bethanechol.
