Patent abstract
The present invention provides methods and systems for conditioning cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by removing target compounds from CSF. A multilumen flow path allows exchange of a majority volume portion of CSF in the CSF space. The removal and/or delivery of specific compounds can be tailored to the pathology of the specific disease. The removal is targeted and specific, for example, through the use of specific size-exclusion thresholds, antibodies against specific toxins, and other chromatographic techniques, as well as delivery and/or removal of targeted therapeutic agents.
