Hydrocephalus Course
This course equips learners with essential expertise in diagnosing and managing hydrocephalus, particularly normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). Participants develop proficiency in interpreting imaging, conducting CSF dynamics tests, selecting VP shunts or ETV procedures, providing postoperative care, and addressing complications, ultimately improving neurological results and enabling confident patient and family guidance.

What will I learn?
Gain practical, evidence-based skills to assess and treat normal pressure hydrocephalus through targeted history-taking, physical exams, imaging analysis, tap tests, ELD procedures, and CSF diversion options. Master VP shunt and ETV planning, valve choices, postoperative surveillance, and complication handling to enhance patient outcomes and team collaboration.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Master hydrocephalus imaging: interpret CT, MRI, DESH signs, and CSF flow studies rapidly.
- Build NPH diagnostic skills: use tap tests, ELD, gait assessments, and evidence-based guidelines.
- Make informed shunt and ETV choices: select VP, VA, pleural shunts, or ETV based on latest data.
- Perform VP shunt procedures: plan placement, select valves, and achieve low complication rates.
- Manage post-op shunt care: identify issues early and ensure optimal long-term patient results.
