About this study

Official title: Comparison of Sensimed Triggerfish (TF) 24 Hour IOP Monitoring With Goldmann Applanation Tonometry (GAT) and Perkins Tonometry in Glaucoma Patients

This prospective, crossover study is designed to correlate SENSIMED Triggerfish® (TF) continuous IOP monitoring with conventional 24 h intraocular pressure profiles in glaucoma patients. There are two control measurements: The GAT/Perkins profile in the same eye in the second night and the GAT/Perkins profile in the same night in the fellow eye. Therefore, each eye serves as test eye and also as control for the second test eye.

What is being measured

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

  1. Relation of GAT/Perkins with TF in a cross-over regression analysis.

    Correlation of GAT/Perkins values with TF data (mean, min, max, fluctuation)

    Measured: 48 hours

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Correlation of IOP in the test eye (TF) compared to a conventional 24h IOP profile (GAT) the reference eye (same night)

    Correlation of GAT/Perkins values with TF data (mean, min, max, fluctuation)

    Measured: 48 hours

  2. Correlation of IOP profile (GAT) right versus left eye

    Correlation of GAT/Perkins values in the right and left eye (mean, min, max, fluctuation)

    Measured: 48 hours

  3. Correlation of IOP profile (TF) right versus left eye

    Correlation of TF data right and left eye (mean, min, max, fluctuation)

    Measured: 48 hours

  4. Correlation of IOP with blood pressure

    Correlation of GAT/Perkins values and TF data with systolic and diastolic blood pressure(mean, min, max, fluctuation)

    Measured: 48 hours

  5. Correlation of IOP with heart rate

    Correlation of GAT/Perkins values and TF data with pulse rate(mean, min, max, fluctuation)

    Measured: 48 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sensimed Triggerfish Sensor and Goldmann Applanation Tonometry, Perkins Tonometry in people with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma, run by Katrin Lorenz at 1 site in Germany.

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 8 inclusion and 0 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 28 Nov 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 Germany. 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?

Relation of GAT/Perkins with TF in a cross-over regression analysis. (time frame: 48 hours). 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 28 Nov 2012.
