Intended purpose
A flexible tube that is surgically inserted through the skull and brain to access the cerebrospinal fluid-filled cavities of the brain (ventricles). This device is single-use.
Functional description
The Innervision ventricular catheter is designed to be used with a compatible Medtronic Neurosurgery endoscope. Direct vision facilitates placement of the catheter tip at a specific intraventricular location. The catheter is designed to be used as the proximal component of a CSF-Flow Control Shunt for use in shunting cerebrospinal fluid from the ventricles of the brain into the right atrium of the heart or to the peritoneal cavity.
