Abstract
The method proposed offers many advantages over the existing methods for medullary drug delivery with catheter implantation. It is easy to be employed, it does not induce any sign of motor impairment, and it does not require the neck surgery performed to implant a catheter in the medullary dorsal horn region. Therefore, it is a useful method for subarachnoid drug delivery in behavioral trigeminal pain studies, particularly when nociceptive behavioral measures that require normal neck muscle activity to occur, such as head withdraw or head flinch are evaluated.
