Post Market Clinical Follow-up of CODMAN CERTAS Programmable Valve

The CODMAN CERTAS Plus Programmable Valve is a single use implantable device designed for shunting cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for the treatment of hydrocephalus. The valve can be set to 8 different performance settings for intraventricular pressure and drainage of CSF. The performance setting of the valve can be set preoperatively and can also be noninvasively changed post-implantation. This clinical investigation will maintain data for each patient from the date of implant through 3 years post-implantation. Data collection for each patient will occur per standard of care. However, the clinical investigation specifically aims to collect and analyze data from the day of procedure, and post-operatively at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, and 36 months. Data from follow-up visits will be analyzed according to pre-defined time-intervals referring to these follow-up moments.
