FeaturesThe Strata Advantage
By incorporating over a decade’s worth of proven valve technology with an adjustable valve mechanism, Strata offers an adjustable valve with both anti-siphon and post-implant performance level adjustment abilities. This advantage will address two main challenges that face both patients with hydrocephalus and the physicians who treat them: overdrainage and shunt revisions.

Product Description
The PS Medical® Strata® valve is an adjustable flow control valve in which the resistance properties of the valve can be changed non-invasively by the caregiver. It is designed to minimize overdrainage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and maintain intraventricular pressure (IVP) within a normal physiologic range, regardless of patient position. The normally closed Delta® chamber mechanism opens in response to positive ventricular pressure. Working with the ball and spring valve mechanism, overdrainage is minimized by utilizing the principle of hydrodynamic leverage.
