This study is looking at how well a device called ShuntCheck works. ShuntCheck is an FDA-cleared device that checks if a shunt (a tube that drains fluid from the brain) is working properly. The study wants to see if ShuntCheck can accurately tell if fluid is flowing through the shunt in people who have normal pressure hydrocephalus (a condition where too much fluid builds up in the brain) but are not currently having symptoms. You can join if you are 40 years or older, have a ventriculoperitoneal shunt (a specific type of shunt) for normal pressure hydrocephalus, and are visiting for routine care. The study will measure how accurately ShuntCheck identifies when a shunt is working or not working. The current recruitment status is unclear.
