It is used to detect early risk factors for dementia and stroke, while also being capable of early detection of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH) disease. The data the device collects can also be used to determine how effective ventriculoperitoneal shunting will be on individual patients.
Dr. Rick Kuntz is president of Neuromodulation and chief medical and scientific officer at Medtronic. In the same press release, he said, “An NPH diagnostic test will become simple and accessible for the first time, and undetected and untreated patients will be able to benefit from an effective shunt (VPS) treatment."
