Ventricular Catheter Kit
Precision, Protection, and Performance in One Complete Set
The Ventricular Catheter Kit by Desu is designed for the precise and reliable drainage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in neurosurgical procedures such as hydrocephalus treatment or intracranial pressure monitoring. This kit includes a ventricular catheter, stylet, and right-angled connector, offering a comprehensive solution for neurosurgeons and operating room teams. Manufactured from high-quality barium silicone and available in both standard and antibiotic-impregnated options, the kit ensures optimal performance, patient safety, and infection control.
1. Catheter Material and Structure
The ventricular catheter is constructed from barium-impregnated silicone, a material chosen for its biocompatibility, flexibility, and radiopacity. The inclusion of tantalum length markers on the catheter ensures accurate placement and positioning during surgery. These markings begin from the 5th centimeter and extend to the 15th centimeter, making it easier for surgeons to monitor insertion depth under imaging guidance.
At the proximal end, the catheter features six precisely engineered drainage holes, arranged along four rows. This design enhances CSF collection efficiency and minimizes the risk of clogging or uneven drainage. The smooth internal lumen and well-placed perforations ensure consistent flow while reducing the potential for blockages caused by debris or tissue fragments.
2. Catheter Dimensions
- Inner Diameter (ID): 1.3 mm
- Dış Çap (OD): 2.5 mm
- Length (L): 23 cm
These dimensions are carefully selected to balance adequate fluid flow with minimal invasiveness, allowing for compatibility with standard ventricular access procedures.
3. Kit Components
The Desu Ventricular Catheter Kit is packaged with the essential components required for effective use:
a. Ventricular Catheter
The central component of the kit, this catheter is soft enough to reduce trauma during insertion but firm enough to maintain its shape once placed. Its barium-infused composition ensures radiopacity, allowing the catheter to be easily visualized during and after placement using standard imaging technologies.
b. Stylet
A flexible yet sturdy stylet is provided to assist in the insertion of the catheter. The stylet gives the catheter the necessary rigidity during the advancement process, especially when navigating through delicate brain tissue.
c. Right-Angled Connector
The included right-angled connector allows the catheter to be securely joined to other components of the CSF drainage system, such as shunts or external ventricular drainage (EVD) systems. The angle of the connector helps to reduce strain on the catheter entry point and minimizes the risk of kinking.
4. Antibiotic-Impregnated Ventricular Catheter Option
To further enhance patient safety and reduce the risk of post-operative infections such as ventriculitis, Desu offers an antibiotic-impregnated ventricular catheter. This advanced version includes a controlled-release formula of:
Klindamisin Hidroklorür
Rifampisin
These antibiotics are embedded directly into the catheter wall and released in a sustained and controlled manner over 28 days. This release window corresponds to the critical postoperative period during which infection risks are highest.
Studies have shown that the use of antibiotic-impregnated catheters significantly reduces the incidence of CSF infections, making them a preferred choice in both primary procedures and revision surgeries.
5. Safety and Infection Control
Patient safety is at the core of Desu’s catheter design. All materials are biocompatible and non-toxic, ensuring they do not provoke inflammatory or immune responses. The smooth surface and precision-manufactured holes reduce sites for bacterial adhesion and fluid stagnation.
With the antibiotic-impregnated variant, Desu provides an added layer of defense. The combination of Clindamycin and Rifampicin has been clinically proven to be effective against a broad spectrum of gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis, two of the most common pathogens in post-operative neurosurgical infections.
