Codman® Hakim™ Programmable Valve (CHPV) Cylindrical with Prechamber | | | General Information | |
| Vendor | | Codman | | Item | | Codman® Hakim™ Programmable Valve (CHPV) Cylindrical with Prechamber | | Features | | The programmable valve allows a surgeon to non-invasively change the opening pressure between 30mm H2O and 200 mm H2O in 18 steps; negating the need for revision surgery to alter the valve pressure. The programmability of the valve may allow for the development of specialized treatment regimes. The opening pressure of the CODMAN® HAKIM™ Programmable Valve is changed through the use of an externally applied, codified magnetic field. The spring in the ball and spring mechanism of the valve sits atop a rotating spiral cam which contains a stepper motor. Applying a specific magnetic field to the stepper motor will cause the cam to turn slightly, increasing or decreasing the tension on the spring and ball, thus changing the opening pressure of the valve. The CODMAN® HAKIM™ programmable is available in eight basic configurations, and each of these configurations can be purchased with a unitized distal catheter or valve only. | | Product Number | | 823110 | | Pressure in mmH2O | | 30 to 200 | | Pricing |  | Inquire |
