ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a condition called idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), which affects the brain's ability to manage fluid. The researchers want to learn more about how this condition develops and progresses over time. They will also look for specific markers in digital images and biological tests that might help doctors diagnose iNPH and develop new treatments. The goal is to better understand this condition and improve care for patients.

To participate in this study, individuals must be diagnosed with iNPH. Unfortunately, those who have had surgery or other treatments for this condition before, are pregnant, or have other types of hydrocephalus or nervous system diseases will not be eligible. Participants can expect to undergo various assessments and follow-ups to help the researchers gather important information. This trial is currently recruiting patients aged 65 to 74, and both men and women can take part.
