Long-Term Tracking of Fluid Dynamics in Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunts With a Wireless Thermal Anisotropy Measurement Device During Activities of Daily Living Including Sleep
Rhaeos, Inc.
Summary
This study evaluates the performance of a device for non-invasively assessing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt flow over multiple measurements performed by a study subject during activities of daily living and sleep
Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Existing ventricular CSF shunt 2. (Cohort A) A history of stable ventricular size, no shunt revision in the previous 2 years, and no current symptoms of shunt failure 3. (Cohort B) A shunt revision in the previous 7 days and the investigator judges that the patient will likely be discharged within 4 days of the enrollment date 4. Region of intact skin overlying an unambiguously identifiable palpable chronically indwelling ventricular shunt which crosses the clavicle and is appropriate in size for application of the study device 5. Signed informed consent by subject or a…
