Integra NL8509810 Integra LPV II Valve

STANDARD LPV II VALVE, LOWThe Integra LVP II Valve, Standard is a silicone elastomer valve used for the treatment of hydrocephalic patients when shunting cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the ventricles of the brain. The valve incorporates an internal low pressure valve assembly which is mounted distal to an integral pumping reservoir for proximal control of CSF flow. The device also provides one-way flow control. Integral occluders are incorporated on the proximal and distal end of the valve to allow manual control of flushing or pumping of CSF proximally or distally. The device is fitted with a polypropylene needle guard, designed to prevent inadvertent needle puncture through the base of the reservoir during percutaneous injection. The valve contains an integral plastic connector on each end to simplify the assembly procedure.
