How is a shunt coil installed?
'Shunt' is an archaic term, meaning 'in parallel with'. So a 'shunt coil' is connected 'in parallel' with... With what, of course, depends upon what sort of device you are talking about. For example the field coil of a d.c. shunt-connected motor has its field winding connected in parallel ('shunt') with the supply.
What is a peritoneovenous shunt?
refers to the surgical insertion of a shunting tube to achieve the continuous emptying of ascitic fluid into the venous system.
What types of shunts are used for peritoneovenous shunting?

What type of dietary restrictions are there after peritoneovenous shunt insertion?
Once released from the hospital, the patient is expected to abstain from alcohol, and follow a low-salt diet and medication regime designed to control ascites.
What procedure is used in the peritoneovenous shunt insertion procedure?

Why would a mass in the third ventricle cause hydrocephalus?
I happen to have hydrocephalus :/ and that mass could cause a blockage, requirring insertion of a shunt by neurosurgeons.
What are the differences of Long shunt vs short shunt generator?
In long shunt the shunt field winding is in parallel to both generator and series field. In short shunt the shunt field is in parallel to generator only.
How is Dandy-Walker syndrome treated?
Treatment for Dandy-Walker syndrome typically involves managing symptoms and complications such as hydrocephalus with shunt placement, developmental delays with early intervention services, physical or speech therapy, and monitoring for other associated conditions. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to address specific complications related to the condition.
