Overview
AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026
The P-S Medical Ventricular Access Port is a subcutaneous, implanted port and catheter system designed for intraventricular use. Classified as a Port & Catheter under FDA product code LKG, it is intended for long-term access to the ventricular system of the brain, facilitating cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sampling, drainage, or administration of therapeutic agents. This device is categorized under the Neurology medical specialty and falls within FDA device class II.
The P-S Medical Ventricular Access Port is supplied sterile and intended for single-use implantation. It is regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K874468) and adheres to the requirements outlined in 21 CFR Part 882.5550. The system includes a subcutaneous reservoir connected to an intraventricular catheter, enabling minimally invasive access to the ventricular system. Storage and handling must comply with sterile medical device protocols to maintain integrity before use.

Questions
AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026
What is the P-S Medical Ventricular Access Port used for?
The P-S Medical Ventricular Access Port is designed for long-term access to the brain’s ventricular system. It enables clinicians to safely collect cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples, drain excess fluid, or administer therapeutic agents—critical for managing conditions like hydrocephalus or delivering targeted treatments in neurology.
Is the device intended for reuse or single-use?
The P-S Medical Ventricular Access Port is supplied sterile and intended for single-use implantation only. Reuse violates sterility requirements and compromises patient safety, as the device is not designed for repeated procedures.
How should the port be stored before use?
The device must be stored according to sterile medical device protocols to preserve its integrity. It should remain in its original packaging until immediately before implantation, protected from contamination and physical damage. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or moisture.
What components does the system include?
The system consists of a subcutaneous reservoir (implanted under the skin) connected via a catheter to the intraventricular space of the brain. This design allows minimally invasive access for CSF-related procedures without repeated surgical interventions.
Does the port require special handling or regulatory compliance?
Yes, the port adheres to FDA 510(k) clearance (K874468) and 21 CFR Part 882.5550 standards. It is classified under FDA product code LKG (Port & Catheter) and is intended for neurology applications. Sterility and single-use compliance are non-negotiable for safe implantation.
