Intrathecal pain pump percutaneous trial

The percutaneous pain pump trial is a procedure for testing the efficacy of an intrathecal pain pump. Temporarily, a pain pump and a catheter are placed under the abdominal skin. For the next few days, the doctor closely monitors the functions of the pain pump and the efficacy of the pump. If the spinal pain pump trial succeeds, a permanent pump may be recommended.

Who needs an intrathecal pain
pump percutaneous trial?

  • Our experienced interventional pain specialists will conduct a comprehensive assessment of your pain condition and medical history to determine if an Intrathecal Pain Pump trial is a suitable option for you.
  • During the procedure, a catheter will be percutaneously inserted into the intrathecal space near the spinal cord. The other end of the catheter will be connected to a temporary pain pump placed under the skin.
  • The pain pump will deliver a small amount of pain medication directly to the intrathecal space, targeting the nerves responsible for transmitting pain signals.
  • You will undergo a trial period to assess how well the Intrathecal Pain Pump manages your pain. This evaluation typically lasts a few days to a week.
  • Throughout the trial period, our medical team will closely monitor your pain levels and response to the pain pump’s medication delivery.
