Variability in Lumbar Puncture Assessment in Patients With Papilledema From Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension
Inconsistencies in LP measurement units and CSF laboratory orders may lead to misinterpretation, potentially impacting patient care for those suspected of having papilledema due to IIH. We recommend greater standardization of the assessment of LP results for those undergoing evaluation for papilledema suspected due to IIH.
