Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is intended to evaluate the feasibility of using VisAR augmented reality surgical navigation during placement of an external ventricular drain (EVD). The investigators are interested in confirming the design of the VisAR headset is compatible with this bedside procedure.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A secondary objective of this study is to compare the accuracy of freehand EVD navigation, the current standard of care, with VisAR augmented reality surgical navigation. The intent is to demonstrate the advantages to the patient by the use/application of this next generation navigation technology.
