CODMAN CERTAS Tool Kit

Description

The CODMAN CERTAS Tool Kit is used to adjust and
confirm the performance setting of a CODMAN CERTAS
or CODMAN CERTAS Plus Programmable Valve. The
actions are performed both preoperatively (with the
valve still in the sterile package) and postoperatively
(on the implanted valve) through noninvasive means.
The CODMAN CERTAS Tool Kit employs magnetic force
to change the performance setting.
The CODMAN CERTAS Tool Kit (See Figure 2A) consists
of five components:
• Adjustable Height Locator Tool
• Low Profile Locator Tool
• Indicator Tool
• Adjustment Tool
• X-Ray Overlay Tool
These components are packaged within a case (See
Figure 2B) that, when closed, will help minimize the effect
of the CODMAN CERTAS Tool Kit magnets on other items.
The CODMAN CERTAS Tool Kit is provided separately as
a non-sterile product:
Catalog No.

CAUTION: Do not sterilize the CODMAN CERTAS
Tool Kit.

Disinfecting the CODMAN CERTAS Tool Kit

After use, wipe the areas of the tools that contact the
patient with a combination wipe (Quaternary Ammonium/
Isopropyl Alcohol). Follow Steps 1 through 4 below.
1. Thoroughly wet the surfaces with a wipe.
2. Keep the surfaces wet for 2 minutes. Use as many
wipes as needed to keep the surfaces wet for the
entire 2 minutes.
3. Allow the wetted surfaces to air dry.
4. Inspect the components to ensure that all soil, blood,
or debris has been removed. If needed, repeat Steps 1
through 3 and inspect again.
Visually inspect all parts after disinfection to ensure
markings remain. Do not use the Tool Kit components if
markings are compromised. Contact your local Codman
sales representative for a replacement kit.

The valve and its accessories are for SINGLE USE
ONLY; DO NOT RESTERILIZE. Codman Neuro single
use devices have not been designed to undergo or
