Infections in cerebrospinal fluid shunts

Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1985
Bacterial colonization of cerebrospinal fluid shunts is a cause of significant morbidity, causing not only shunt malfunction and chronic ill-health but has also been implicated in an immune-complex glomerulonephritis. Almost all shunt colonizations involve Staphylococcus albus which gains access to the shunt during surgery and grows in microcolonies ...

In Vitro Colonisation of Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunts

European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1983
A reliable method of colonizing cerebrospinal fluid shunts has been developed in vitro. A simulated cerebrospinal fluid is described in which the test organism (Staphylococcus epidermidis) multiplied. All experiments were conducted in a CO2 enriched atmosphere.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunts

2018
Placement and revision of ventricular shunts has saved more lives in Western society than any other neurosurgical procedure. Estimates of a total of 75,000 shunt procedures are done yearly in North America. The majority of these cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-diverting shunts originate in the lateral ventricle, drain into the peritoneum and are described as

Cerebrospinal Fluid Scanning and Ventricular Shunts

Radiology, 1970
The routine lumbar injection of 131I human serum albumin (RISA) may be used instead of the more difficult and potentially dangerous intraventricular, cisternal, or direct shunt injections to determine the patency of ventricular shunts in patients with communicating hydrocephalus.

Quantitation of Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunt Flow

Radiology, 1974
A new method for quantitatively measuring flow through CSF diversionary shunts is described. Shunt reservoirs were injected with 0.05 ml 99mTcO4− and the clearance, λ, determined. The distribution volume of every known shunt reservoir was ascertained experimentally. CSF flow, F, was determined using the relationship F=λV.
