The intrathecal baclofen infusion therapy is an adjustable and reversible treatment option designed to manage generalized severe spasticity. A motor disorder that makes movement, posture and balance difficult, interfering in the function, daily activities, sleep patters and caregiving of patients.
Since this therapy was first used, multiple clinical studies have been conducted and, collectively, they have demonstrated that this therapy is a safe, well-tolerated, efficacious and cost-effective treatment. Via a reduction of their spasticity and spams, this therapy offers those patients, who are eligible to receive it, a solution effective in the long-term that helps them to improve their function, level of independence and quality of life.
