("Anuncia" or the "Company"), a Company specializing in advancing innovations for implantable and external cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) management systems and neurocritical care, is pleased to announce the successful U.S. commercial launch of the ReFlow™ Mini Flusher device. Neurosurgeons in the US and soon internationally will now have a new option to reduce the impact of hydrocephalus by providing better access to potentially life-saving therapy for the 30 million patients worldwide suffering from this neurological disorder. Hydrocephalus is a chronic neurological condition in which excess CSF accumulates in the brain, often causing severe symptoms, frequent hospitalizations, and ongoing health concerns, and may be fatal if left untreated.

Key Points: 
  • The just launched second-generation ReFlow Mini Flusher is FDA-cleared for use in patients living with hydrocephalus or similar conditions.
  • Its reduced size and profile  are designed to better support a broader hydrocephalus patient population, from infants to older adults.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., May 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Anuncia Medical Inc. ("Anuncia" or the "Company"), a company specializing in advancing innovations for implantable and external cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) management systems and neurocritical care, is pleased to announce that an article highlighting its FDA cleared and CE Marked ReFlow™ Ventricular System "Gen 1" with Hydrocephalus shunts in patients suffering from chronic shunt occlusions, has been published in Pediatric Neurosurgery. Two years prior to being implanted with the ReFlow™ System, 7 of the 9 patients represented in the publication experienced a combined total of 14 proximal shunt failures that required revision. In the 2-4 years following ReFlow™ implantation and use to maintain flow, only 1 proximal shunt failure occurred amongst the 9 patients. As revisions are typically associated with expensive hospital admissions for both the child and family, reducing the number of revisions needed is invaluable to those impacted. 

Key Points: 
  • Yearly, tens of thousands of adults and children with hydrocephalus undergo revision surgeries at U.S. hospitals to replace occluded shunts.
  • "The failure rate of shunts after implantation is unacceptably high, with most failures happening from occlusion/clogging of the ventricular catheter.
  • With >4 years of clinical follow-up and feedback from the ReFlow "Gen 1" device, Anuncia Medical has developed a smaller, easier-to-use ReFlow System Mini "Gen 2" device.
  • "The ReFlow 'Gen 1' and the smaller ReFlow System Mini, represent almost a decade of work with hydrocephalus clinical experts and talented engineers," shared Elsa Chi Abruzzo, President & CEO of Anuncia Medical.
