Monopressure hydrocephalus shunt valve Defit® Small

adultpediatric

All silicone based valves are designed and manufactured using polypropylene and silicone elastomer. The use of polypropylene and silicone elastomer is of great importance in terms of minimizing the risk of deformation of the valves as a result of sticking. In addition, all valves are designed to have a membrane valve mechanism and a reservoir structure that allows CSF sampling. Defit Small shunts are used in children and adults during treatment of hydrocephalus, where controlled drainage of CSF is required.
