Event Description
|
Information was received from (b)(6) regarding a patient receiving unknown drug via an implanted pump.It was reported after the patient was having a bit of a nightmare with the baclofen pump.It was noted the pump was increased by another 5% about seven to eight weeks before report date and it became too much.The patient's breathing was affected and their lean to the right was more difficult to correct.By the time the patient managed to get an appointment the breathing had settled down but the spasticity was bad.The patient went to see their healthcare provider three weeks prior to this report and they reduced the pump by 2.5%.It was also noted the patient was getting really sharp pain in the back of their legs and especially at night when the patient needs two pillows to keep their knees bent and their heels off the bed.
