简要总结
To assess the accuracy the SOLOPASS® System US based in the placement of external ventricular drain into the cranial cavity. This study will aim at evaluating the proposed efficacy of the device in targeting the brain ventricles and decrease multiple brain passes, incorrect deployment and malfunctioning of the drain.

研究组 & 干预措施
Catheter placement with Solopass system
The Solopass US system will be used during catheter placement procedure to guide the placement of the catheter.
干预措施: Catheter Placement with Solopass System (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Average number of passes needed to place the catheter in each subject.
时间窗: 0 minutes
Measured by the number of passes needed to place the catheter. If the first attempt fails, another US sweep will be performed, and another attempt will be performed. If that fails, then the procedure will be aborted.
次要结局
- Post procedure imaging accuracy of the placement of the EVD will be performed by reviewing post procedure imaging using the Kakarla scoring system(up to 7 days)
