What happens when an unfamiliar patient who has an intrathecal baclofen pump shows up in your hospital system unexpectedly? This session will quickly review the evidence-based medicine and best practices for troubleshooting intrathecal baclofen pumps. The primary focus of the session will discuss how multiple health care systems (MetroHealth, Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals, and Louis Stokes Cleveland Veterans Affairs Hospital) came together to create a City-Wide Best Practice for coordinating care, managing, and troubleshooting intrathecal baclofen pumps.
