Cerebral oximetry with blood volume index in asystolic pediatric cerebrospinal fluid malfunctioning shunt patients

Pediatric cerebrospinal fluid shunt malfunctions can present with varying complaints. The primary cause is elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). Malfunctioning sites are the proximal or distal sites[1-4]. A rare presenting complaint is cardiac arrest. Immediate ICP reduction is the only reversible o...
