SUMMARY
The authors aimed to characterize the walking pattern of patients with iNPH in the home environment preoperatively and postoperatively after VP-shunt placement while differentiating them from EHCs. Long-term follow-up examination has shown a clinical improvement of 70-90% in patients with iNPH after ventriculoperitoneal (VP)-shunt placement, particularly in gait. A recent study performed on a pressure sensitive carpet confirmed the hypokinetic gait characteristics of iNPH patients with reduced walking speeds, reduced stride lengths, and confirmed the requirement for more broad-based support. The ambulatory center of mass movement studies showed . . .
