A fluid introduction system includes an introducer configured to create a
pressure of at least 69 kPa within a spine, and an operator configured to
actuate the introducer to introduce fluid into the spine according to a
predetermined fluid introduction profile. The system can include a
computer readable medium having code for receiving fluid introduction
data indicative of a fluid introduction parameter, and for receiving
response data indicative of a response of the patient at a time related
to a time of the fluid introduction data. A method for introducing fluid
includes positioning a first introducer in a first portion of a spine,
positioning a second introducer in a second, different portion of the
spine and, without removing the first and second introducers, introducing
fluid into the first portion of the spine with the first introducer and
introducing fluid into the second portion of the spine with the second
introducer.
