Abstract:
A device intended to measure acceleration and pressure across a conventional valve of a shunt implant was designed and built. In this model, sensory data is sent wirelessly from the implant to a monitor, where proper evaluation algorithms detect the instantaneous valve status (open/close) and the intracranial pressure. Clinical implementation of this concept will potentially become a great step forward in diagnostics and treatment of Hydrocephalus.
