Silicone Based Shunt System

DEFIT SHUNTS

  • Defit ultra Small (Pediatric/Infant) shunts (Standart valve body / Antibiotic integrated valve body)
  • Defit Small Shunts (Standart valve body/Antibiotic impregnated valve body)
  • Defit Regular (Adult) shunts (Standart valve body/Antibiotic impregnated valve body)
  • DECURVE SHUNTS

  • Decurve Pediatric Shunts (Standart valve body/Antibiotic impregnated valve body)
  • Decurve Adults Shunts (Standart Valve Body/Antibiotic impregnated valve body)
  • SILICONE BASED SHUNT KITS

  • Defit Shunt Kits (Standart / Semi Antibiotic Impregnated / Full Antibiotic Impregnated)
  • All silicone based valves are designed and manufactured using polypropylene and silicon elestomer, which decreases the possibility of deformation of the valves due to sticking.
  • None of the valves contain any metal parts, which gives them the uniqueness of non-interference with MRI or Ct scans.
  • The radiopaque barium marks on the valves indicate pressure, flow direction and valve-to-catheter approximation.
  • Moreover, all the valves are built in with a membrane valve mechanism and incorporated with reservoirs for percutaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) access.
  • All the valves have high technology version that contains antibiotics in the silicone body of the valves.
  • Antibiotic imrpegnation of the silicone body is one of a kind quality that the other valves in the market has.
  • Controlled release of the impregnated antibiotics from the silicone body for a duration 28 days is also the ultimate method for infection preventation, which is one of the main problems of shunt surgery.
  • Silicone Shunt systems are manufactured and supplied in three pressure categories :low pressure, medium pressure, high pressure
