====== VentriGuard ======

The VentriGuard [[ventricular catheter]] meets all neurosurgical requirements for temporary [[cerebrospinal fluid drainage]] while also optimising protection against infection caused by [[microorganism]]s.

As a solution in order to control pathegens, the VentriGuard technology utilises minimal amounts of ionized [[silver]], which are completely incorporated in a non-metallic porous molecular structure. The antimicrobial effect of silver against [[gram positive]] as well as [[gram negative]] bacteria has been impressively verified in specialist literature.

The [[catheter]] also offers further application benefits for the surgeon, due to the length markings in intervals of 1 cm and mandrin that reaches all the way to the tip of the catheter. This enables precise catheter placement in a simple way. Possible catheter dislocation ist prevented by the catheter connector which is fixed directly onto the scalp.
