“Smart” Shunts –the common vision • Sensors (flow or pressure) • Pump or valve • Electronics • Implanted power (battery) • Control algorithm • Measure things • Change pump/valve setting • Two‐way way communications (diagnostics, intervention) Anticipated for decades. Why don’t we have one yet?
Smart Shunts: Codman & Shurtleff • Based on adjustable Codman‐Hakim valve • Smart actuator on adjustment cam actuator
