About this study

Official title: UHR-OCT and HD-OCT for Preretinal Membranes: Is There a Difference Between ICG and Membrane Blue? A Randomized Clinical Trial

Using the UHR-OCT and HD-OCT to evaluate early postoperative changes in patients with diagnosis preretinal membrane after successfully performed pars-plana vitrectomy and membrane peeling with two different types of dyes.

Read the detailed description

Surgical procedures performed are pars-plana vitrectomy and membrane peeling with or without cataract extraction and IOL implantation. The type of the dyes is randomized. The study is designed to include a total of tweny cases (10 cases with ICG and 10 cases with Membrane blue)

Main outcome measures are:

UHR-OCT, HD-OCT distance and near visual acuity and contrast sensitivity amsler grid secondary outcome measures are: OCT Stratus 3000 and visual field. Clinical examinations: preoperative, and follow-up examinations after 1 week, 1 months, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ppVE, MP, ICG and ppVE, MP, MB in people with Retinal Diseases, run by The Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Retinology and Biomicroscopic Laser Surgery at 1 site in Austria.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Sep 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Austria. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

UHR-OCT HD-OCT (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Sep 2008.
