-== [[Intrathecal drug delivery systems complication]]==
+==See Also==
-*used for delivery of short or long acting pain medications into the theca space
-Most common Intrathecal medications
-#Clonidine
-#Bupivacaine
-#Morphine
-#Hydromorphone
-#Fentanyl
-#Baclofen
-#Ziconotide
-Complications:
-#Respiratory depression from medication overdose
-#Infection
-*The device is not removed in an overdose but should be turned off.
-*Insertion of a 22-guage needle into the pump reservoir can remove all medication in case device cannot be turned off
-*Consider naloxone to reverse effects taking into account patients chronicity of treatment if they withdrawal
-==[[Vagal nerve stimulator complication]]==
-*Used to treat refractory epilepsy
-*Implanted in the chest with a single lead stimulating the left vagus nerve.  It does not stimulate the right vagus nerve which innervates the heart
-Complications:
-#Hoarseness
-#Shortness of Breath
-#Pharyngitis
-#Infection
-#Parasthesias
-#Insomnia
-#Excessive Pain
-==[[Bladder/Sacral nerve stimulators complication]]==
-*Single wire system inserted into the S3 sacral foramen to stimulate sacral nerve and treat urinary incontinence
-Complications
-#Infection (early or late complication)
-#Lead Migration
-#Stimulator misfiring
-==[[Deep brain stimulator complication]]==
-*Implanted to treat Parkinson's disease and dystonia.
-*Single lead systems implanted into the thalamus
-Complications
-#Infection (usually early after placement)
-#Over or Under stimulation
-#Lead Migration
-==[[Gastric pacemaker complication]]==
-* Inserted into the gastric musculature for gastroparesis management
-Complications
-#Perforation
-#Infection
-#Lead Migration
-==[[Phrenic nerve/diaphragmatic stimulators complication]]==
+==External Links==
-*Implanted into bilateral phrenic nerves to treat rerspiratory insufficiency from poor diaphragmatic motion
-Complications
-#Pneumothorax (early after implantation)
-#Infection
-#Wire Migration
-#Drive malfunction (causing diaphragmatic paralysis)
