About this study

Official title: Assessment of Sitting and Supine Position IOP Using SENSIMED Triggerfish® and Standard Tonometers

The purpose of the study is to evaluate changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) between sitting and supine body positions and correlate the values obtained with conventional tonometers to the output provided by the investigational device.

Read the detailed description

20 subjects will be enrolled in the investigation. Eligible subjects will receive one session of 22-hour continuous IOP monitoring with SENSIMED Triggerfish® in ambulatory mode, with body position transitions carried out in-hospital. SENSIMED Triggerfish® will be installed randomly on right or left eyes and the IOP recording will be initiated as soon as the adaptation of the device on the subject's eye is satisfying. Subjects will then go home. The next morning, subjects will return to the hospital and during SENSIMED Triggerfish® monitoring on one eye, IOP measurements will be taken in the fellow eye in sitting position using Goldmann, tonopen and pneuma-tonometers. Then subjects will lie down on a flat bed. After 15 ± 5 minutes and again after 45 ± 5 minutes IOP will be measured in supine position, using Goldmann, tonopen, pneuma-tonometer and Perkins tonometers. Then subjects will sit up again. After 30 ± 5 minutes IOP will be measured with the Goldmann tonometer.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • SENSIMED Triggerfish®Device

    Soft contact lens-based device for the continuous monitoring of IOP fluctuations

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Difference in study device signal and GAT IOP between the sitting and supine positions during the sitting-supine sequence

    Measured: 45 minutes

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Difference in Triggerfish® signal and GAT IOP between the sitting and supine positions upon returning to sitting position from supine

    Measured: 30 minutes

  2. IOP measurements with tonopen and pneuma-tonometer in sitting position, and tonopen, pneuma-tonometer and Perkins in supine position

    Measured: 2 hours

  3. Monitoring with study device obtained before Day 2

    Measured: 20 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SENSIMED Triggerfish® in people with Healthy Subjects, run by Sensimed AG at 1 site in Israel.

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 9 inclusion and 9 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 17 Apr 2012. 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 Israel. 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?

Difference in study device signal and GAT IOP between the sitting and supine positions during the sitting-supine sequence (time frame: 45 minutes). 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 17 Apr 2012.
