Prevalence and outcomes of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

  • Applicant: Robert Stewart
  • Project ID: 22-062

Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is an important condition which can appear similar to dementia but which sometimes responds to surgical intervention. This study will investigate the extent to which iNPH is diagnosed and/or might be screened for in older adults services and other relevant SLaM settings, and will investigate outcomes in known and suspected cases.
