Intrathecal baclofen in severe spasticity.

B N McLean1.   

Abstract

Control of severe spasticity and its associated features with administration of baclofen directly into the CSF via an intrathecal pump has radically improved the management of patients resistant to oral therapy. This article reviews the rationale and clinical indications for this technique, and the outcome and complications encountered.
