(Cohort B) A shunt revision in the previous 7 days and the investigator judges that the patient will likely be discharged within 4 days of the enrollment date
Region of intact skin overlying an unambiguously identifiable palpable chronically indwelling ventricular shunt which crosses the clavicle and is appropriate in size for application of the study device
