Standard work tools for managing pediatric baclofen pump infections and withdrawal
SWTs improve safety and timeliness in the management of ITB pump infections and baclofen withdrawal in children. The presented tools provide a reproducible framework for first-line providers and pertinent specialists, particularly for those who may not be familiar with key signs and varied presentations. Broader adoption may reduce variability in treatment while optimizing longitudinal ITB therapy outcomes in pediatric patients.
