Christoph Miethke GmbH & Co. KG products

ONE valve for the unique requirements of a life with hydrocephalus: mobility, growth, changes in the course of disease. unique uncompromising pressure adaption to optimize individual patient needs. smallest adjustable gravitational valve worldwide. 2-in-1 technology: adjustable gravitational unit combined with fixed differential pressure unit in one valve. protected against over-drainage through individually and continuously adjustable opening pressure from 0-40 cmH2O. MRI-compatible up to 3 Tesla: no X-ray control after MRI necessary, no additional radiation exposure for the patient. protected against unintentional adjustment by means of exposure to magnets found in daily life, such as those used in smartphones, toys, induction cookers or safety barriers at the airport. Innovative M.blue plus Instruments for M.blue and proGAV 2.0. Intuitive, safe and comfortable adjustment. precise precision engineering. robust and durable: made of titanium.

More protection against over-drainage complications due to position-dependent function and infinitely variable pressure setting from 0-20 cmH2O. MRI compatible up to 3 Tesla: no X-ray control after MRI necessary, no additional radiation exposure for the patient. "Active-Lock" mechanism: protected against unintentional adjustment by means of exposure to magnets found in daily life, such as those used in smartphones, toys, induction cookers or safety barriers at the airport. "Soft Touch" instruments with enhanced magnetic force: intuitive, safe and comfortable adjustment. Precise precision mechanics. Robust and durable due to the use of titanium. Improvement of the X-ray recognition in the Scout View.

The paediGAV is the first pediatric valve for the treatment of pediatric hydrocephalus that works in a position-dependent manner and thus offers more protection against overdrainage complications.

The DUALSWITCH-VALVE is the first MIETHKE valve. It was first implanted in 1995 at the Charité hospital in Berlin and quickly achieved very good results in clinical studies.

The SHUNTASSISTANT 2.0 proves its strengths above all in partnership with other valves. Here, for example, it can be combined with a differential pressure valve to provide efficient overdrainage protection.
