Abstract
The intrathecal drug administration system (ITDAS) has recently been introduced for treating chronic intractable pain patients who have failed with conservative pain treatments. The obvious advantages of its use are the direct intrathecal delivery of drugs, which yields reduced adverse effects and the increased strength of drugs, as compared to its oral or intravenous route. This article offers a review of the ITDAS with a brief review of its evidence-based effectiveness, the technical approach, and the complications.
