NCT ID NCT07442929
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This lab study uses leftover spinal fluid from 10 patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus to see if common numbing medicines form crystals. Researchers mix different drugs and watch for crystals over 60 minutes. The goal is to understand risks, not to treat patients directly.
