Device Description

An implantable device intended to divert excessive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the subarachnoid space of the lumbar spine to the peritoneal cavity where it can be absorbed into the body, as a treatment for raised CSF pressure (e.g., caused by hydrocephalus). It consists of fully-implantable interconnected components: a spinal catheter implanted into subarachnoid space of the lumbar spine; a mechanical shunt valve that may incorporate a puncturable port/reservoir for sampling/infusion; a peritoneal catheter implanted into the peritoneal cavity; some types incorporate a subcutaneous anchor for component connection/positioning. Disposable devices associated with implantation may be included.
