Clinical Application
This graduated ventricular cannula is intended to provide controlled access to the cerebral ventricles for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage, sampling, temporary ventricular access during intracranial procedures, and for use in external ventricular drainage or pressure-monitoring setups. The 7 Fr profile offers a low‑profile option when a smaller lumen and reduced tissue disruption are desired.
Design & Configuration
Graduated depth markings along the cannula shaft permit incremental, controlled advancement and reproducible placement depth — an important feature when targeting ventricular anatomy. The 11 cm shaft length balances reach and handling, allowing the surgeon to maintain tactile control while achieving adequate intraventricular penetration. The slim 7 Fr diameter reduces insertion footprint and is useful in cases that require a smaller bore access.
