NCT ID NCT07285928
First seen Jan 09, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 19 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a special brain ultrasound can help doctors decide which patients with suspected normal pressure hydrocephalus will benefit from a shunt surgery. About 110 adults will get the ultrasound before a standard spinal tap, and their progress will be checked one year later. The goal is to see if the ultrasound measurements match who improves after surgery, potentially leading to better treatment decisions.
