## Indications for Use

CODMAN HAKIM™ Shunt Systems are implantable devices that provide constant intraventricular pressure and drainage of cerebrospinal fluid for the management of hydrocephalus. CODMAN HAKIM™ Shunt Systems are available with or without CODMAN BACTISEAL™ catheters, which are intended for use in the treatment of hydrocephalus as a component of a shunt system when draining or shunting of cerebrospinal fluid is indicated. CODMAN HAKIM™ Shunt Systems are also available with or without SIPHONGUARD™. The SIPHONGUARD™ device is designed to reduce the potential hazards of excessive lowering of intraventricular pressure (with respect to atmospheric pressure) when a patient is in an upright position.

## Device Story

Implantable shunt system for hydrocephalus management; provides constant intraventricular pressure and CSF drainage. System is a variable composite device; physician selects configuration including valve type, pressure setting, housing, reservoir, anti-siphon device (SIPHONGUARD™), and antimicrobial-treated catheters (BACTISEAL™). Used by neurosurgeons in clinical/surgical settings. SIPHONGUARD™ reduces risk of excessive pressure drop in upright position. System components are modular; assembled based on patient-specific clinical needs.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on identical materials and design to previously cleared predicate devices.

## Technological Characteristics

Implantable CSF shunt system; modular components including valves, reservoirs, catheters, and anti-siphon devices. Materials identical to predicate devices. Mechanical pressure regulation; no electronic or software components.

## Regulatory Identification

A central nervous system fluid shunt is a device or combination of devices used to divert fluid from the brain or other part of the central nervous system to an internal delivery site or an external receptacle for the purpose of relieving elevated intracranial pressure or fluid volume (e.g., due to hydrocephalus). Components of a central nervous system shunt include catheters, valved catheters, valves, connectors, and other accessory components intended to facilitate use of the shunt or evaluation of a patient with a shunt.
