Mechanical filtration of the cerebrospinal fluid: procedures, systems, and applications.
Introduction: Mechanical methods aimed at the filtration of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are a group of therapies that have been proposed to treat neurological conditions where pathogens are present in the CSF. Even though the industry of medical devices has not been very active in this field, there is a lack of systematization of the different systems and procedures that can be applied.
Areas covered: First, we systematize the classification and definitions of procedures and systems for mechanical filtration of the CSF. Then, we made a literature review in search of clinical or preclinical studies where any system of mechanical CSF clearance was proposed or applied.
Expert opinion: We found mechanical filtration of the CSF has been explored in subarachnoid hemorrhage, CNS infections (bacterial, viral, and fungal), meningeal carcinomatosis, multiple sclerosis, autoimmune encephalitis, and polyradiculomyelitis. Brain aging and neurodegenerative diseases are additional potential conditions of interest. While there is some preliminary positive evidence for many of these conditions, more advanced systems, detailed descriptions of procedures, and rigorous validations are needed to make these therapies a reality in the next decades.
期刊介绍:
The journal serves the device research community by providing a comprehensive body of high-quality information from leading experts, all subject to rigorous peer review. The Expert Review format is specially structured to optimize the value of the information to reader. Comprehensive coverage by each author in a key area of research or clinical practice is augmented by the following sections:
Expert commentary - a personal view on the most effective or promising strategies
Five-year view - a clear perspective of future prospects within a realistic timescale
Key issues - an executive summary cutting to the author''s most critical points
In addition to the Review program, each issue also features Medical Device Profiles - objective assessments of specific devices in development or clinical use to help inform clinical practice. There are also Perspectives - overviews highlighting areas of current debate and controversy, together with reports from the conference scene and invited Editorials.
