摘要
This case report reviews the anesthesiological complications of intrathecal baclofen (ITB) therapy. An 11-year-old boy with spasticity and apallic syndrome needed general anesthesia for exchange of a baclofen pump but 2 h later he became increasingly hypothermic, hypotonic with bradycardy and dyspnea. The cause was an intra-operative bolus of ITB. Reduction of the baclofen administration rate caused disappearance of all symptoms without any residual effects. The ITB is an increasingly used therapeutic option for multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy. Therefore, emergency personal and anesthesiologists must be aware of the possible side effects of this medication.
