Results for tag: "Cerebrospinal Fluid Drainage Catheter"

A Cerebrospinal Fluid Drainage Catheter is a type of catheter used to drain cerebrospinal fluid from the brain and spinal cord. It is typically used to treat hydrocephalus, a condition in which cerebrospinal fluid accumulates in the brain. The catheter is inserted into the ventricles of the brain and connected to a drainage system, allowing the fluid to be removed. The catheter is typically made of a flexible material such as silicone or polyurethane, and is designed to be inserted through a small incision in the skull. The Cerebrospinal Fluid Drainage Catheter market is a specialized segment of the larger catheter market. It is a relatively small market, but is growing due to the increasing prevalence of hydrocephalus and other conditions that require cerebrospinal fluid drainage. Some companies in the Cerebrospinal Fluid Drainage Catheter market include Medtronic, Stryker, and B. Braun. Show Less Read more
