Your Healthcare Team Shunt for Hydrocephalus

Overview

You’ll work with a variety of healthcare professionals as you pursue shunt therapy for yourself or your family member.

This team will likely include the following medical professionals:

  • A neurologist familiar with shunt therapy will determine if shunt therapy is the right choice
  • A neurosurgeon who has experience with shunt therapy will perform the procedure to implant the shunt
  • A team of nurses will assist the neurosurgeon throughout the entire process

Part of the healthcare team’s job is to make sure the treatment is as comfortable as possible. Always ask for clarification if there’s something you don’t understand. Also, make sure to communicate any concerns you may have regarding the procedure or follow-up treatment.

Remember: Get the best treatment results by actively participating in discussions with members of your healthcare team.
