SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The Camino Micro
®
Pressure Monitoring Kit consists of a sterile
transducer-tipped
catheter with accessory items which provide
a means of access to the cerebral ventricles
for CSF sampling and drainage, fluid injection
and intracranial pressure monitoring. Since
its method of measuring pressure is unique,
please read this section carefully.
Unlike ordinary pressure monitoring systems,
the Camino Catheter
transducer at the distal tip. This unique design
eliminates the need for a "fluid-filled system" to
carry pressure waves to an external transducer.
Thus, the problems inherent in such fluid-filled
systems are eliminated. The result is a precise
pressure measurement and an artifact free,
high fidelity waveform trace.
The Camino Micro Ventricular Bolt Monitoring
Kit contains the following accessory items for
use with the Camino Catheter (Figure 1):
• Camino Ventricular Access Device, with
ventricular catheter, bolt, female Luer lock
and stylet,
• 0.209 inch (5.3 mm) diameter No. 4 drill bit,
with safety stop,
• Hex wrench,
• Zero adjustment tool,
• Additional Luer lock port to connect drainage
system.

STYLET
The indwelling portion of the ventricular catheter
assembly is fabricated of barium-impregnated
silicone elastomer, having an OD of 3.7 mm
and ID of 2.2 mm. Its length is adjustable from
6–8 cm. Designed for directing fluid from the
ventricles through a series of drainage holes, it
can be inserted into the ventricular cavity with
the supplied stainless steel stylet.
Note: A hand drill and various standard surgical
instruments and supplies are required to place
the ICP monitoring system.
INDICATIONS
The use of the Camino Micro Ventricular
Pressure Monitoring
neurosurgeon is indicated when direct pressure
measurement and cerebro-spinal fluid drainage
is clinically important. The Camino Micro
Ventricular Pressure Monitoring Kit is intended
to be used with an external drainage system as
indicated by individual manufacturers.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
• This device is not intended for any use other
than that indicated.
• Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Safety
Information: The Camino 110-4HM is
MR Unsafe. Do not bring catheter or
accessories into the MR environment.
