- The study focuses on the effectiveness of adjustable differential pressure valves in VPS for infants with hydrocephalus, particularly after post-intraventricular hemorrhage and other causes.
- It involved 43 infants under 6 months, with regular measurements of head circumference and ventricular size to adjust the valve pressure accordingly.
- Results indicated that infants with hydrocephalus from intraventricular hemorrhage required higher valve pressure adjustments than those with hydrocephalus from other causes, highlighting challenges in achieving optimal shunt performance.
