Abstract

A shunt system for use in a human body that is formed from a length of tube that is configured as a pump. The length of tube may be configured as a hydroimpedance pomp, whose surfaces are pressed to pump fluid in the specified direction and way. The length of tube that forms the pump may be connected to shunt inlet and outlet parts, and may also include a valve that is adjustable to prevent back draining of fluid.
