UNASSIGNED: Idiopathic normal pressure @entity1276 is a @entity102 affecting the elderly. It is defined by Adams and Hakim's triad in addition to @entity2554 visible by brain imaging and normal cerebrospinal fluid pressure during lumbar puncture. The objective of this review was to propose a standard of care for @entity5083 based on an extensive literature review conducted on 459  articles published over the last 10  years. Those articles were obtained by searching for the keywords "normal pressure @entity1276 " in the PubMed database and selecting all the articles published in English or in French. The diagnosis of @entity5083 is difficult because of commonly associated diseases, such as @entity195 and @entity455 . Brain MRI is one of the key procedures to assist in the diagnosis of @entity5083 . Indeed, the presence of certain MRI features is highly predictive of a positive tap test and shunt responsiveness. Nevertheless, tap test remains the standard of care for diagnosis. Continuous cerebrospinal fluid drainage test is an alternative because it improves the sensitivity of diagnosis (but is a more complicated test to perform). Alzheimer's biomarkers dosing in the cerebrospinal fluid seems interesting when diagnosis remains uncertain: the presence of Alzheimer's profile of the biological markers is predictive of a lower response to the tap test.
