The Latest News From Anuncia

Anuncia Medical is a neurotherapeutic device company currently solving the large unmet need in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) management and neurocritical care of repeat revision brain surgeries. We are developing technology to monitor, treat, and prevent shunt occlusions at-home or in-clinic with clinically validated, noninvasive, breakthrough devices.
Based in Scottsdale, Arizona, our team consists of medical device veterans working in partnership with top institutions, clinicians, engineers, and development teams toward the goal of reducing repeat revision brain surgeries.
Hydrocephalus is a complex condition which occurs across all stages of life, but predominantly affects children or adults over 60.
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) estimates that 1 to 2 of every 1,000 babies in the United States are born with hydrocephalus.
The ReFlow™ System Mini offers the only noninvasive way to attempt to restore, increase, or maintain CSF flow within a shunt system.
The ReFlow™ System Mini or the ReFlow™ Mini Flusher may be implanted as part of a shunt system in patients with hydrocephalus or conditions that require draining or shunting the CSF. Without surgery, pressing the ReFlow™ Mini Flusher, which is located under the patient’s scalp, sends a controlled flush of fluid toward the shunt ventricular catheter. Blockages may be pushed out to open ventricular catheter flow holes. When used with the ReFlow™ Ventricular Catheter, the flush can also open ReFlow™ Ventricular Catheter’s relief membrane backup feature to create an alternate pathway for CSF flow.
The ReFlow™ System Mini and the ReFlow™ Mini Flusher are not intended to change the diagnosis, treatment, or follow-up of patients with ventricular catheter occlusions (blockages). Patients experiencing symptoms of a blockage should seek medical attention and notify their treating physician as they would normally if they did not have a ReFlow™ Mini device.
Images for illustrative purposes only and may not be representative of the ReFlow™ Mini Flusher’s ability to clear blockages.
