Re: Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
hi there,
thre is a questionnaire on the following website SB&H - Spirit. Breakthrough & Hope about NPH for your patient. You can also get info about NPH from the website. Once shunted some patients do improve , current literature shows a success rate from 40-87% over 1 year. Hope this helps Safraz
