Evidence of multidomain mild cognitive impairment in Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension

Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH) is a disorder of unknown etiology that may occur in all age groups, but is most common in young women, especially those with obesity. It is well known that IIH can cause damage in visual functions, possibly leading to blindness; the major goal of treatment is to preserve vision and prevent intractable headache. Cognitive function is currently not addressed routinely during clinical evaluation of IIH patients.NeuroTrax is a practical and technologically advanced computerized tool which provides professional-grade cognitive assessment.The aim of this study was to evaluate cognitive functions in IIH patients using the NeuroTrax testing, which offers a broad profile of cognitive function and has been shown precise and easy to use with good re-test reliability and discriminate validity for mild cognitive impairment.
