Additional Details

Gravity Compensating Accessory

The Gravity Compensating Accessory (GCA) is designed to be mounted in line with the DP valve or any other differential pressure valve system in order to counteract the siphoning effect of hydrostatic pressure when the patient is in the upright position.

The GCA can be used in all cases where an anti-siphon device is deemed necessary. Its operating characteristics are not dependent on its location along the shunt distal tubing and they are not sensitive to external pressure.

FDA Product Code: JXG
FDA Product Code Name: Shunt, central nervous system and components

GMDN Term Code: 61123
GMDN Term Name: Ventriculo-peritoneal/atrial shunt
GMDN Term Description: An implantable device intended to divert excessive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the brain ventricles to either the peritoneal cavity or the heart right atrium (i.e., dual-capability), where it can be absorbed into the body, as a treatment for increased intracranial pressure (e.g., caused by hydrocephalus). It consists of: 1) an intracerebral ventricular catheter through which CSF flows; 2) a mechanical shunt valve that typically opens at a pre-set pressure; and 3) a peritoneal/atrial catheter that channels the CSF to the peritoneal cavity or right atrium; some types have a port/reservoir for hypodermic sampling/infusion. Disposable devices associated with implantation may be included.
