Study Summary

The research project is designed to determine which combination of tests will enable physicians to predict whether a patient with symptoms of normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) will improve with a shunt.

Primary Outcome

A brain CT scan is obtained after the first week to ten days and the shunt is adjusted according to the patients signs and symptoms. Prior to any downward adjustment of the shunt valve (which allows more CSF drainage), a brain CT is obtained to look for subdural hematoma or effusion. If any type of subdural collection is found, the valve pressure is increased (to reduce CSF flow) until the collection resolves.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Programmable Shunt Insertion (Codman, Medtronic)
  • BEHAVIORAL Assessments in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy
