Scuba diving with an intrathecal baclofen pump is encouraged for people with spinal cord injury who are suffering from spasticity. However, the diving depth is limited to 10 metres in this context. Proper physician and patient education in this respect is mandatory since non-compliance can lead to an irreversible loss of drug reservoir capacity due to collapse of the bottom shield. We report such an incident in a paraplegic diver diving to depths down to 30 metres' water.
对于患有痉挛的脊髓损伤患者,鼓励其带着鞘内注射巴氯芬泵进行水肺潜水。然而,在这种情况下潜水深度限制在10米。在这方面,必须对医生和患者进行适当的教育,因为不遵守规定可能会因底部护罩塌陷而导致药物储存器容量不可逆转地丧失。我们报告了一名截瘫潜水员潜水至水下30米深处时发生的此类事件。
