Research Article: Comparison of Noninvasive Measurements of Intracranial with Tap Test Results in Patients with Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
Abstract:
Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is a clinical condition characterized by ventriculomegaly associated with gait changes, cognitive disturbances, and urinary incontinence. The disease was first described by Salomon Hakim in and can be classified as to its etiology as idiopathic or secondary, which can have no identified cause, or can be secondary to a previous factor causing the disorders, such as meningitis, head trauma, or subarachnoid hemorrhage.–
