OnePath pairs two components, used with a dedicated ultrasound
At the heart of the system is our miniaturized echographic probe. This forward-looking technology provides real-time, high-resolution ultrasound imaging from within the catheter, allowing for unprecedented navigational precision.
The probe is powered by a specialized ultrasound scanner. This system includes advanced image post-processing dedicated to shunt placement, ensuring that neurosurgeons have the highest quality visual feedback throughout the procedure.
This integrated approach is completed by standard accessories—including a dedicated trocar for secure tunneling and a luer-lock connector—ensuring that OnePath fits seamlessly into existing surgical workflows while providing a leap forward in safety and accuracy.
Unlike traditional methods, the 6MHz forward-looking phased-array provides a live view of the ventricular anatomy directly from the catheter tip, allowing surgeons to navigate with absolute confidence.
OnePath maintains the standard biomechanical properties and accessories (trocar and luer-lock) that surgeons are already familiar with. It enhances the procedure without requiring a change in the fundamental surgical workflow.
The custom-reworked catheter tip is specifically designed to balance high-fidelity ultrasound transmission with efficient fluid drainage via eight side perforations, ensuring no compromise in patient safety or device performance.
By ensuring a « first-time right » placement in the treatment of hydrocephalus, OnePath aims to reduce the risk of intracranial hemorrhage and trauma associated with repeated attempts.
By utilizing our dedicated image post-processing, clinicians can identify the optimal trajectory in real-time, significantly reducing the risk of multiple passes and misplaced catheters.
