A facility reported a microsensor (id (b)(6)) was implanted on (b)(6) 2025.On the same day, moderate cerebrospinal fluid (csf) leakage was observed from the side hole of the catheter where the stylet had been removed.The physician subsequently retrieved the catheter and discontinued monitoring due to sensor failure on (b)(6) 2025.The monitor used was an icp express, 220 volt (id (b)(6)), and the cable used was an icp express cable (id (b)(6)).There is no information available indicating whether the patient experienced any signs or symptoms related to the csf leakage.The patient is stable.
