The LIKVOR CELDA® Instrument is a medical device that
will simplify the mapping of CSF-dynamics in a safe and
reproducible way.
Due to increased knowledge about the brain, brain disorders and
their corresponding symptoms, the need to measure CSF-dynamics has
gradually become more and more important. Until today, CSF-dynamics
has been investigated in many ways with mostly non-standardized,
non-commercially available equipment. Therefore it has been
difficult to gather, compare and summarize data obtained by
research or from clinical investigations.
The LIKVOR CELDA® Instrument changes the situation
for investigators working either in the clinic, with research, or
both. The LIKVOR CELDA® Instrument offers automatic
standardized protocols for multiple purposes in diagnosis of
patient CSF-dynamics before and after operation of shunt, in
shunt-control, with constant flow or constant pressure
measurements etc.
With its flexibility and easy handling the LIKVOR
CELDA® Instrument sets a new standard for
investigations of CSF-dynamics.
Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
NPH is a condition mainly found in the elderly population. The
symptoms are often part of normal aging, thus the syndrome is hard
to diagnose.
Liquor dynamical investigation
CSF dynamical parameters
NPH is the result of an imbalance in the CSF dynamical system,
and thus it is important to measure the intracranial pressure and
other parameters such as CSF absorption which affect the system.
The Likvor instrument allows for a thorough investigation to be
made, where the pressure and flow dynamics of each patient is
carefully examined.
