Study Summary

Bedside ultrasound in the emergency department is useful for quick assessments of patients. One growing use is to measure the optic nerve sheath diameter of patients for whom increased pressure in the head is a concern. This study will look at the optic nerve sheath diameters of a specific population of pediatric patients with shunts that drain extra fluid from their heads.

Primary Outcome

Patients will have their ONSD measured by ultrasound in the emergency department or immediately after admission. After they either receive antibiotics or shunt revision surgery, and are no longer symptomatic from shunt failure, their ONSD will be measured again and compared to the initial measurement.
