Neuclare device for normal pressure hydrocephalus
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a new medical device called Neuclare for people with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), a condition that causes walking problems, memory loss, and bladder issues. It aims to see if the device can help improve these symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 60 to 90 years old
- You have trouble walking, plus at least one of these: memory problems or bladder control issues
- You do not have severe memory loss (score above 17 on a standard memory test)
- You have not had a brain surgery (shunt) in the past year
- You have not changed any medications for walking, memory, or bladder in the last 3 months
- You can safely undergo an MRI scan (no metal implants, no allergy to MRI contrast dye)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares two surgical treatments for normal pressure hydrocephalus (fluid buildup in the brain). It tests whether a less invasive procedure (endoscopic third ventriculostomy) works as well as the standard shunt surgery to improve walking, memory, and bladder control.
This study uses a safe ultrasound test to measure blood flow in your brain to help doctors decide if a shunt (a tube that drains extra fluid) might help you. It enrolls people with possible normal pressure hydrocephalus who are already being checked for the condition.
This trial studies older adults with unsteady walking, which may be a sign of a treatable brain condition. It aims to understand the condition and find ways to reduce fall risk and improve health.
This study checks if a special smart insole can detect changes in walking after a spinal tap test for people with suspected Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH). If you have walking problems and are considering a spinal tap, this trial might help find better ways to measure your response.
This study tests a device called Neuclare that aims to temporarily boost memory and thinking skills in people with mild cognitive impairment or very early Alzheimer's disease. It could offer a non-drug way to help with daily mental tasks.
This European study looks at people with early (prodromal) signs of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), a condition that can affect walking and thinking. It uses brain imaging and brief walking/cognitive checks to see who has this early pattern and may benefit from further evaluation.
