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
