POLYSULPHONE BASED DEPUS QUICK RESPONSE SHUNTS
Depus Quick Response shunt is designed to regulate and sustain the intra-ventricular pressure (IVP) of the patient via controlled drainage of the CSF (cerebrospinal fluid).
Technical Details
-
Depus Quick Response Shunts ( Standard Valve Body / Antibiotic Impregnated Silicone Body )
Polysulphone shunts are manufactured using radiopaque titanium, ruby ball and polysulphone (long term implantable) and are supplied sterile (ETO). The shunt pressure levels are marked with tantalum which allows MRI visibility.

Major advantage compared to Standard Depus Quick Response shunts due to antibiotic impregnated catheters Wide spectrum of protection through joint impregnation of Clindamycin HCl and Rifampicin Prevention of bacteria colonization up to 28 days Low obstruction risk due to hydrophilic nature of catheters |
Antibiotic impregnated catheters and antibiotic impregnated silicone cover on valve body Wide spectrum of protection through joint impregnation of Clindamycin HCl and Rifampicin Prevention of bacteria colonization up to 28 days Low obstruction risk due to hydrophilic nature of catheters and shunt body |
