Reason

Potential for variation in radiopaque marking visibility under radiographic imaging for Medtronic adjustable and fixed-pressure valves that are used in the management of hydrocephalus. This issue does not impact the therapeutic pressure performance of these devices, however variation in radiopaque marking visibility post-implant may limit the ability to determine pressure settings and flow direction with radiographic imaging.
