Objective To investigate dosage changes in intrathecal baclofen during long-term treatment of patients with severe leg spasticity. Methods We performed a retrospective chart review of 49 patients treated with an intrathecal baclofen pump (ITB) because of severe leg spasticity, for a minimum of 7 years. Eight patients were excluded due to catheter/pump failure or factors aggravating spasticity. Of the remaining 41 patients, 19 had spinal cord injury (SCI) and 22 were diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). Among the SCI patients, 15 had cervical and 4 thoracic SCI, with 7 patients showing the American Spinal Injury Association impairment scale (AIS) A and 12 patients with AIS B–D. The dose was regulated by discussion among the patients and their physicians, usually 4–10 times annually, to reduce leg spasticity and also avoid leg/trunk weakness. Results After 1 year patients on ITB needed a median dose of 168 mg/24 hr (range, 30–725 mg) for an optimal effect. After 7 to 10 years the dosage needed to reduce leg spasticity in the MS patients was significantly increased compared with the initial dose (mean 157%, n=22 and mean 194%, n=18). In contrast, the SCI patients needed only a modest increase (mean 113% and 121%). The difference between MS and SCI patients was significant (t-test p=0.006 and p=0.004). Conclusion The increased dosage in MS patients compared with patients diagnosed with SCI probably reflects the progressive disease course. The need for a large dosage increase in patients with SCI suggests possible pump failure, triggering factors for spasticity or progressive spinal disease.

Purpose: Anastomotic leakage (AL) is the most dreaded complication in rectal surgery. It has a great impact on postoperative morbidity and mortality. This animal model, in which we have studied postoperative metabolic and inflammatory changes, is designed to imitate an AL. Methods: Twelve pigs were randomized into 2 groups. In the experimental group, an iatrogenic rectal perforation was performed, with the control group having a sham operation. The 2 groups were followed for 10 hours after operation with regard to vital parameters, arterial lactate, and cytokines interleukin (IL) 1, IL6, and IL10 in the blood and intraperitoneally. Intraperitoneal microdialysis analyses of glucose, lactate, glycerol, and pyruvate were performed and the lactate/pyruvate ratio was calculated. Results: Glucose levels were lower in the experimental group after 4 hours. After 7 hours, lactate and lactate/pyruvate ratio was higher in the experimental group. At the same time intraperitoneal cytokines IL6 and IL10 were higher in the experimental group. Blood samples showed higher IL6 after 7 hours in the experimental group. Conclusion: In this study, several significant differences between the groups in metabolic and inflammatory values were detected. Further clinical studies are recommended to evaluate the importance of intraperitoneal metabolic and inflammatory analyses as a diagnostic tool for early identification of an AL.
