VIEshunt: towards a ventricular intelligent and electromechanical shunt for hydrocephalus therapy

Abstract Background Shunt systems for hydrocephalus therapy are commonly based on passive mechanical pressure valves that are driven by the intracranial, intra-abdominal, and hydrostatic pressure. The differential pressure acting on the valve determines the drainage rate of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)...
