Insulin infusion device complication
- External pump visible on the abdomen with subcutaneous catheter placed under a dressing nearby
- Insulin pumps are easily removed by pulling the catheter out from under the dressing removing it from the subcutaneous insertion site
Complications:
Intrathecal drug delivery systems complication
- 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
- 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)
