Abstract
A cerebral spinal fluid shunt plug includes a shunt plug housing having a shunt valve recess formed therein and an intracranial monitoring device recess with an access hole. A shunt valve is positioned within the shunt valve recess of the shunt plug housing and an intracranial monitoring device is passed through the central access hole of the shunt plug housing.
Claims10
A cerebral spinal fluid shunt plug, comprising:
- a shunt plug housing including a shunt valve recess formed therein and an intracranial monitoring device recess with an access hole;
- a shunt valve shaped and dimensioned for positioning within the shunt valve recess of the shunt plug housing;
- and
- an intracranial monitoring device shaped and dimensioned for passage through the access hole of the shunt plug housing;
- wherein the shunt valve and intracranial monitoring device are separate and distinct elements from the shunt plug housing, and wherein the shunt valve and the intracranial monitoring device are configured to be positioned within the shunt plug housing.

2 more elements
A cerebral spinal fluid shunt plug, comprising:
- a shunt plug housing including an upper surface, a lower surface, and side walls extending between the upper surface and the lower surface;
- a shunt valve recess is formed in the upper surface of the shunt plug housing, wherein the shunt valve recess is shaped and dimensioned to receive a shunt valve and is in communication with an exterior of the shunt plug housing via access passageways extending from an exterior surface of the shunt plug housing to the shunt valve recess;
- and
- the shunt plug housing also includes an intracranial monitoring device recess that is formed in the upper surface of the shunt plug housing, wherein an access hole extends from the intracranial monitoring device recess to the lower surface of the shunt plug housing, and the intracranial monitoring device recess is shaped and dimensioned to receive an intracranial monitoring device with a probe of the intracranial monitoring device passing through the access hole;
- wherein the shunt valve and intracranial monitoring device are separate and distinct elements from the shunt plug housing, and wherein the shunt valve and the intracranial monitoring device are configured to be positioned within the shunt plug housing.
