Assessment of Flow in Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunts With a Second Generation Wireless Thermal Anisotropy Measurement Device
Sponsor: Rhaeos, Inc.
Summary
This study evaluates the performance of a thermal anisotropy measurement device for non-invasively assessing CSF shunt flow. Patients with an existing implanted shunt and symptoms of shunt malfunction who require shunt revision surgery will be evaluated with the study device to assess flow in CSF shunts as confirmed by surgical outcomes at 7 days. If successful, this study will show that the study device accurately distinguishes between functioning (flowing) and non-functioning (non-flowing) shunts.
