Probability Sample
|
The study population will consist of asymptomatic normal pressure hydrocephalus research subjects who have a ventriculoperitoneal shunt with a single ventricular catheter implanted for adult hydrocephalus and are visiting for routine care. Evaluation will be within 2 weeks of shunt placement.
|
Hydrocephalus, Normal Pressure
|
Diagnostic Test: ShuntCheck
The intervention is an FDA-cleared device utilizing a transcutaneous thermal convection to analyze shunt flow.

Inclusion Criteria:
- Asymptomatic men or women 40 years old or older and have a ventriculoperitoneal shunt placed for normal pressure hydrocephalus and are visiting for routine care.
- Capable of providing valid signed informed consent, or has a legal guardian, health care agent, or surrogate decision maker capable of providing valid, signed informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Presence of multiple shunts, or presence of more than one distal shunt catheter (regardless of function) crossing the clavicle ipsilateral to the shunt with suspected obstruction;
- ShuntCheck test would interfere with standard patient care, or emergency shunt surgery that cannot be delayed is indicated;
