Intrathecal Baclofen Therapy  

Join ARN on May 22 for this informative webinar on intrathecal baclofen devices and therapy with Sylvia Duraski, MS ANP-BC CRRN CBIS SCRN.

This webinar will teach participants what patient will benefit most from the device, how the device works and what education is most important for the patient and family to learn. The webinar will also identify what rehabilitation nurses who encounter patients with this device should know, including signs and symptoms of complications and what to do.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify what patients may present with a baclofen pump.
  • The steps involved in identifying if a patient is appropriate for pump placement.
  • List the equipment needed for pump management, dose changes and refills.
  • Name at least one sign or symptom of baclofen pump overdose or underdose.
  • Identify at least one important education point for patients with baclofen pumps and their families.

Individuals who participate in the full activity and complete the post-evaluation will receive 1.25 Nursing Contact Hours. If you attend the live webinar, you will also have access to the on-demand recording after the event.
