Abstract
A method for monitoring a flowrate of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in a ventriculo-peritoneal (VP) shunt implanted in a human patient includes: (i) receiving, at a device external to the human patient, data sensed by a plurality of sensors within the device and positioned relative to the VP shunt to drain excess cerebrospinal fluid from the human patient's brain; (2) determining, by the device and based on the sensed data, a rate of flow of the CSF in the VP shunt; and (3) transmitting (e.g., wirelessly), by the device, data indicating the rate of flow to a computing server.
