Intervention

Device:
• Prometra Programmable Intrathecal Infusion Pump
There are two enrollment groups (arms). One is for new patients who are going to have a Prometra Pump implanted. The other arm is for patients who were part of the IDE study prior to FDA approval of the pump, and are willing to continue to be followed as part of a study.
