Investigate myelin alterations in patients with neurosurgical diseases
This is a pilot study examining the feasibility and efficacy of using Apple iPad applications ("apps") during therapy interventions that target visual motor, visual attention, and visual-spatial reasoning skills in school age children who were previously treated surgically for hydrocephalus. Each subject will participate in an initial assessment and baseline MRI, followed by 6-weeks of iPad app-based interventions, and finally a follow-up assessment and a follow-up MRI.
Aqueduct's Smart External Drain (SED) will be compared to the current gold standard for temporary CSF management in a hospital setting. - Evaluate the number of subjects requiring to be switched to a standard of care EVD - Evaluate subject transport while on the SED - Evaluate SED system control from initiation of SED through discharge of external drain system
To evaluate the performance characteristics of the Smart External Drain (SED) compared with standard EVD drains in the hospital setting, specifically: - Number, type and duration of staff interactions. - Regulating and controlling ICP and CSF drainage. - Maintaining system control with patient movement.
