Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Pediatric Neurosurgery
  • Medical Research

Background:

  • Hydrocephalus poses significant challenges in pediatric neurosurgery.
  • AIIMS, New Delhi, has a long-standing commitment to hydrocephalus research.
  • Progress in hydrocephalus management requires sustained research efforts.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review three decades of hydrocephalus research at AIIMS, New Delhi.
  • To highlight the impact of local research on patient care, particularly in resource-challenged settings.
  • To emphasize the importance of continued research and international collaboration.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted basic research, clinical investigations, and multicentric studies over 30 years.
  • Reviewed studies impacting hydrocephalus care in India and other resource-limited regions.
  • Participated in the International Infant Hydrocephalus Study (IIHS).

Main Results:

  • Investigated the effects of shunting on brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAER), transcranial Doppler (TCD), and CT-SPECT.
  • Demonstrated that shunting is effective for congenital aqueductal stenosis in young children.
  • Developed and refined shunt infection protocols, reducing postoperative infections.

Conclusions:

  • Hydrocephalus research at AIIMS has been productive, informing clinical decision-making.
  • Local investigative work can significantly improve patient outcomes.
  • Further research and international collaboration are crucial for advancing hydrocephalus treatment.
