2.08 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

proGAV 2.0 Tools can be used to deter-
mine, change and monitor the pressure level of
the adjustable differential pressure unit of the
proGAV 2.0 valve.
The proGAV 2.0 is a position-dependent valve
to drain cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the treat-
ment of hydrocephalus. It consists of an
adjustable differential pressure unit and a grav-

Fig. 1: proGAV 2.0
The proGAV 2.0 Compass (Fig. 2) is used for
localising and reading out the adjustment unit
in the proGAV 2.0.
Opening the instrument reveals a template that
can be used to localise the valve in the patient's
head using the index finger. After this, the
proGAV 2.0 Compass template is adjusted to
the flow direction of the CSF and placed over
the valve. Folding the Compass down results in
the automatic reading and display of the pres-
sure level.
