Local-spinal Therapy of Spasticity

Abstract

During the last few years a new method of medication has experienced wide-spread use, for which so far no generic term has been established. Its outstanding characteristic is the application of drug solutions with the use of technical aids, especially pump systems. This method has raised hopes that certain problems of pharmacotherapy, which until now seemed to be unsolvable, may be overcome in the near future. Definitions of this pharmacological regimen as well as the technical devices necessary to realize it are given in Table 1.
