摘要：
Systems, catheters, and methods for accessing and treating along the central nervous system are disclosed. An example system may include a system for ameliorating a symptom of bacterial meningitis in a patient. The system may include a catheter assembly having a first lumen with a distal port and a second lumen with a proximal port, said catheter being adapted to be introduced in a CSF space and said ports being spaced axially apart. A pump may be connectable between the first and second lumens to induce a flow of CSF therebetween. A filter component may be connectable between the first and second lumens. The filter component may be configured to remove one or more meningitis causing bacterial pathogen from the CSF, to thereby condition the cerebrospinal fluid.
