Abstract: The Ommaya reservoir is a medical device designed for the administration of medications into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It is surgically implanted under the scalp, providing direct access to the brain's ventricles. This case report presents the nursing care and management of a patient diagnosed with B-cell Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia requiring intrathecal chemotherapy. Nursing care focuses on the maintenance of the reservoir, patient education, and emotional support. This article highlights the significance of a multidisciplinary approach to ensure patient safety and recovery.
