Brief summary (from the registry)

This study is designed to explore if the valve-gated pump requires less drug to manage subject pain than the prior standard peristaltic pump in the same subject. The newly implanted valve-gated pump will be programmed to deliver a minimum dose reduction of 20% of the same medication that was delivered in the peristaltic pump prior to explant. The drug therapy will be evaluated and pain scores will be evaluated over time (3 refill cycles prospectively for the valve-gated pump and 6 months retrospectively for the peristaltic pump).
