Abstract: A bio-pressure sensor system is disclosed, comprising a first sensor configured to provide a reference pressure measurement and second sensor configured to measure a fluid pressure within a human body. The bio-pressure sensor system also comprises a first reference element and second reference element. The first and second sensors share the first reference element. The second reference element is coupled to the first sensor and configured to provide a reference pressure. The first and second sensors each comprise independent output signals.

Abstract: A device and means of attaching an implantable drainage lumen, catheter, or other device to an internal bodily surface, such as the peritoneum, is generally indicated by a biocompatible material or mesh fabric connected to a lumen, catheter, or other mechanical or electrical device whereby the biocompatible material or mesh may be surgically affixed to a tissue or organ by means of sutures, tacks, screws, tissue infusion or adhesion or other means in order to secure an internal drainage, or mechanical/electrical system or component for the prevention of migration or non-optimal CSF reabsorption after installation.

Abstract: A medical device tunneling system, and a method of using the same, to subcutaneously route trocars, also commonly referred to as tunnelers, or introducers, having a cannula, stylet, and a guidewire stylet, inside a patient during a surgical procedure, such as a ventriculoperitoneal hydrocephalus shunt implantation, from a proximal entry point to a distal end point, in order to subcutaneously route and implant a medical device, such as shunt tubing, in a patient.
