The CODMAN® CERTAS™ Programmable Valve has a number of key features which make it a versatile solution for patients with hydrocephalus.
8 Settings including ‘Virtual Off’
‘Virtual Off’ setting (Performance Setting 8) allows clinicians to test patient shunt independence. 7 other discrete Performance Settings cover a broad range of opening pressures to optimise the shunt performance to meet the needs of the hydrocephalus patient.
CODMAN® SIPHONGUARD® Device
Reduce the risk of siphoning by integrating The CODMAN® CERTAS™ Programmable Valve with SIPHONGUARD® Device. The SIPHONGUARD® Device is position independent, allowing maximum treatment flexibility of the patient.
MRI
The valve is designed to withstand unintended pressure setting changes due to external magnetic influences, including MRI up to 3 Tesla.
Unitised with BACTISEAL® Catheters
BACTISEAL® Catheters have been shown in laboratory studies to reduce the colonisation of gram-positive bacteria on all catheter surfaces for 28 days.
