About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Retrospective Registry Study on the Safety of Bactiseal Catheter

Research Purpose: This study aimed to continue to evaluate safety information from subjects implanted with a catheter (trade name: Bactiseal) produced by Codman \& Shurtleff, Inc. of the United States. Device safety would be assessed based on all the adverse events that occurred within one year after the subjects implanted the catheter.

Read the detailed description

This study aimed to continue to evaluate safety information from subjects implanted with a catheter (trade name: Bactiseal) produced by Codman \& Shurtleff, Inc. of the United States. Device safety would be assessed based on all the adverse events that occurred within one year after the subjects implanted the catheter.

This study was designed to be single arm, multi-center, and retrospective. A total of 50 patients would be retrospectively enrolled. Information would be collected on adverse events of subjects enrolled within one year after the implantation of the Bactiseal Catheter from August 07, 2018 to Novemver 30, 2020.

The following information would be collected from subjects' medical records or hospitals' databases (if any):

  1. General condition of the subjects
  2. Intraoperative condition and catheter implantation
  3. Information on the shunt product
  4. Adverse events of subjects within one year after the operation and classification of the adverse events
  5. Relevant examinations in case of postoperative infection
  6. Other adverse event-related information (except anticipated adverse events)
