Abstract

We have designed and tested a peritoneovenous shunt crafted to decrease mechanical shunt failures and minimize DIC and fluid overload. Our implantable peritoneovenous shunt (Minnesota shunt) consists of three parts connected by flexible, nonkinking tubing: 1) a double-chambered, multimicro-orifice peritoneal fluid collecting element; 2) a tubular compression pump; and 3) an antireflux, antiback-diffusion, nonthrombogenic intravascular catheter.
