CINN Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus Program
Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH) is a debilitating disease, which most commonly begins in late adulthood. Up to three-quarters of a million Americans that are diagnosed with dementia, Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease may actually have NPH. Today, less than 20 percent of NPH patients are appropriately diagnosed. Although it is a difficult-to-diagnose disorder, NPH is a readily treatable and many times reversible condition. It may disguise itself as a hopeless disease, but it is not. With the proper treatment, patients with NPH can lead normal, productive lives. Effective treatment of NPH requires the efforts of physician experts who have had years of experience treating the disease.
