# Event Details - **Event Name**: Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus management in Scotland - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 24 Apr, 2026 at 08:30 am – Fri, 24 Apr, 2026 at 05:00 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: An Update SymposiumAbout this EventAIMSThis course, in collaboration with B. Braun Medical Ltd, aims to raise awareness and enhance clinical understanding and management of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH). The symposium will focus on diagnostic options, evidence-based management strategies, and networking to support the development of future NPH care pathways in the various Scottish regions.WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?NPH is a treatable condition that often presents as a diagnostic challenge and can be mistaken for Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease. Early recognition and appropriate intervention in well selected patients, can transform patient lives, restoring mobility, cognition, and independence. With an aging population, a renewed focus on NPH diagnosis and management will help with identifying those potentially suitable for further management.This symposium will provide an expert update on evidence-based NPH care pathways. Raising awareness, sharing best practice, and connecting clinicians will help reduce diagnostic delays and improve consistency in care. Increased clinician knowledge will allow for timely referrals, appropriate investigations, and access to treatments – such as shunt procedures – that can lead to very good outcomes for patients.This course will provide a platform for an updated understanding of NPH and a collaborative network that can encourage improvements in patient outcomes across Scotland.LEARNING OBJECTIVESBy the end of the course, participants will:Review the clinical presentation and diagnostic criteria for NPH, including differentiation from other neurodegenerative disorders.Understand the investigation pathway, and their role in confirming diagnosis.Examine current best practices in NPH management from centres with an established NPH multi-disciplinary service and consider applicability within Scottish services.Discuss challenges and opportunities for creating structured referral and treatment pathways.Build professional networks to support multidisciplinary collaboration and future service development.LEARNING OUTCOMESParticipants will:Identify hallmark symptoms and diagnostic red flags for NPH.Apply evidence-based diagnostic algorithms to clinical scenarios.Evaluate surgical and non-surgical treatment options, including patient selection criteria for shunt surgery.Discuss case studies to understand practical management considerations.Collaborate with peers to outline steps toward pathway development and improved patient access.ORGANISING COMMITTEE INFORMATIONMr Jothy Kandasamy | Consultant Neurosurgeon | NHS ScotlandINVITED SPEAKERSMr Ahmed Toma | Consultant Neurosurgeon | National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery (NHNN), Queen Square, UCLH NHS Foundation TrustProfessor Jan Malm | Professor of Neurology at Department of Clinical Sciences, co-leader of the hydrocephalus research group | Umeå University, SwedenMr Rupert Node | Consultant Neuropsychologist | University Hospitals Plymouth NHS TrustMr Santhosh G.
