Simulation-Based Intrathecal Pump Refill Training (REFILL-IT)

1. Oktober 2026 aktualisiert von: Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel

Optimizing Intrathecal Pump Refill Training: A Simulation-Based Study of Learning Curves and Procedural Competence.

Intrathecal drug delivery is an effective treatment option for patients with chronic (non-) cancer pain or spasticity who do not achieve sufficient benefit from conventional therapies. After intrathecal pump implantation, intrathecal pump refilling is an essential postoperative maintenance procedure that requires procedural competence to be performed safely and consistently. Despite the absence of a standardized intrathecal pump refill protocol, the REFFIL-IT study aims to train 40 participants in intrathecal pump refilling. Based on the learning curve during simulation-based training and the number of complete simulated refill procedures required to achieve stable procedural competence, a step-by-step standardized intrathecal pump refill protocol will be developed. The REFILL-IT study aims to contribute to the safe and correct intrathecal pump refilling in patients with chronic (non-) cancer pain and spasticity.

Experimental: Simulation-based intrathecal pump refill training

The REFILL-IT study consists of two mandatory phases and an optional third clinical phase.

During the Knowledge Acquisition Phase, participants will receive theoretical and practical instruction through educational videos and a written step-by-step guide. Progression requires successful completion of a knowledge assessment covering the refill procedure.

In the Skill Development Phase, participants will repeatedly perform simulated intrathecal pump refill procedures using explanted SynchroMed II™ (Medtronic) dummy pumps positioned beneath a 15-mm silicone skin pad. Each procedure will be assessed as either successful or unsuccessful to evaluate the development of procedural competence.

Participants who achieve stable competence and are physicians legally authorized to perform intrathecal pump refills in Belgium may progress to the Clinical Application Phase, where they will perform refill procedures in patients under the direct supervision of an experienced healthcare professional.
