We partner with top industry teams to engineer & develop our product to help patients with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) disorders, such as hydrocephalus, that require draining or shunting the CSF.
Based in Scottsdale, Arizona, our team consists of medical device veterans working toward the goal of potentially reducing repeat revision brain surgeries.
Hydrocephalus is a complex condition which occurs across all stages of life, but predominantly affects children and adults over 60. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) estimates that 1 to 2 of every 1,000 babies in the United States are born with hydrocephalus.

The ReFlow™ does not change standard of care practices for the diagnosis, treatment, or follow-up of patients with ventricular catheter occlusions. The ‘relief membrane’ backup feature may only be used once; after opening, it may become blocked, similar to catheter flow holes.
