Summary

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.
