INPH may mimic other disorders among elderly such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. A systematic and established approach for diagnosis is required due to the fact that iNPH prevalence is increasing as a result of the rapidly aging population.

Abstract

INPH may mimic other disorders among elderly such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. A systematic and established approach for diagnosis is required due to the fact that iNPH prevalence is increasing as a result of the rapidly aging population. When it comes to identifying individuals who may benefit from ELD and have suspected iNPH, qualitative cognition tests are more accurate than quantitative neurocognitive tests.
