Abstract
Procedure- and device-related complications are frequent after implantation of an ITB-device with catheter-associated complications as the most frequently encountered problems. Patients with a spinal origin of spasticity, a lower modified Rankin Scale and a higher Barthel Index have a higher risk to sustain a complication.
