New shunt device could ease walking problems in older adults
Disease control Recruiting nowThis study tests a new device called the eShunt System for treating normal pressure hydrocephalus, a condition that causes trouble walking, memory loss, and bladder issues in older adults. The trial will compare the eShunt to a standard shunt in 230 people aged 60 and older. The …

Can brain scans and fluid tests predict who will need shunt surgery?
Knowledge-focused Recruiting nowThis study follows 140 people with early signs of normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) and healthy volunteers over several years. Researchers use advanced brain scans and spinal fluid tests to see if they can predict who will get worse and need a shunt. The goal is to better under…

Brain scans and wearable trackers aim to solve shunt surgery mystery
Knowledge-focused Recruiting nowThis study looks at 100 older adults with normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) to find out why some improve after a shunt surgery and others do not. Researchers will use brain scans, blood and spinal fluid tests, and wearable activity monitors to compare those who respond to surge…

Sleep apnea may determine best brain drain surgery
Knowledge-focused Recruiting nowThis study looks at how sleep apnea changes pressure in the brain and belly during sleep, which can affect how well a brain shunt works. Researchers will measure these pressures in 30 adults with normal-pressure hydrocephalus to decide if the shunt should drain fluid into the bel…
