On October 27, 2021, the Adjustable medium and high pressure valve clinical application academic salon was successfully held by Imedcare on online platform of Neurosurgery News.

We invited Prof. MAO Ren ling of Huadong Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University and Prof. Gao Guoyi of Shanghai First People's Hospital as the President of the conference.

With great honor, Prof. Kang Jun from Beijing Tongren Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, Prof. Zhao Ninghui from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University, Prof. Feng Junfeng from Renji Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine and Dr. Fang Xuhao from Huadong Hospital affiliated to Fudan University brought us wonderful academic topics to share.

In addition to standard model valves (30-200mmH₂O), Sophysa can also provide 2 special pressure valves (50-300mmH₂O, 80-400mmH₂O) to meet very specific clinical needs. Experts shared some special cases about the clinical application and experience of these two special pressure valves in LP treatment of IIP, hydrocephalus after brain trauma and some patients with special needs to solve high pressure.

At present, some patients with IIH(idiopathic intracranial pressure heighten ) often under-diagnosed by other departments, the main clinical symptoms of headache, decreased vision, explosive increasing pressure, but the imaging showed that patients with ventricular is normal, These patients can choose to use adjustable medium high pressure shunt valve for surgical treatment, so that the patients symptoms can be effectively alleviate.  On the other hand, when l-P shunt patients with posttraumatic hydrocephalus have high lumbar puncture pressure in sitting position and standing position, the adjustable medium-high pressure shunt valve can effectively avoid the concerns about excessive diversion after L-P shunt. Adjustable medium high pressure shunt valves of Sophysa provide more clinical solutions for special cases. We look forward to sharing more cases and experiences with you in the future.
