Universal Shunt & Shunt Kits

Cost effective design…all-inclusive kit for one low cost.

Designed & packaged with attached ventricular & peritoneal catheter,    optional catheter passer & sheaths.

Progressive resistance valve mechanism… ensures patient safety by    automatically increasing valve operating pressure as CFS flow    increases.

Multi pressure choices…available in four pressures…Very low, low    medium and high.

Kink free Tubing…helps prevent distal blockade.

Completely enclosed shunt design…prevents valve failure due to tissue    encapsulation.

Non-metallic design…eliminates image artifacts, En46001 & USFDA standards.

Clear-stripped tubing…allows visualization of CSF flow.

Low profile design prevents tissue erosion, suitable for Pediatric and neonate use.

Pre-attached ventricular catheter…reduces surgical time in suturing and possibility of ventricular catheter    disconnect.

Encapsulated barium stripe…reduces potential for tissue reaction while allowing for x-ray visualization.

Winged suture tabs…allows for suturing of valve to prevent migration.

Radiopaque pressure reference…provides easy x-ray identification of nominal pressure.

Fluid calibration…more closely replicates in vivo post-implant conditions.

Disposable stainless steel passers with removable sheaths facilitate catheter placement.
