About this study

Official title: A Comparative Study of Icare Rebound Tonometry With Other Tonometry Modalities in Patients Following Vitreoretinal Surgery.

The purpose of the study is to compare the measurement of pressure inside the eye using three different FDA-approved devices (Icare, Tonopen, and Goldmann applanation).

Read the detailed description

The three above devices will be used to measure intraocular pressure in patients one day following vitreoretinal surgery. The underlying reason for surgery is not being considered in this study. The measured pressures will be compared across devices in eyes filled with fluid, gas, and silicone oil.

Being tested
Icare rebound tonometry, Tonopen applanation, Goldmann applanation
Keywords
vitreoretinal surgery, intraocular pressure, applanation, rebound, tonometry

Icare then Goldmann then TonopenExperimentalEnrolled patients will be subjected to intraocular pressure measurement using Icare rebound tonometry, Tonopen applanation, and Goldmann applanation. Patients receive Icare first and then are randomized to receive Tonopen followed by Goldmann OR Goldmann followed by Tonopen. This arm is Icare then Goldmann then Tonopen.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of Intraocular Pressure

    The primary outcome is the measurement of intraocular pressure on postoperative day #1 following vitreoretinal surgery.

    Measured: postoperative day #1

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adverse Events

    The secondary outcome is the onset of any adverse events related to measurement of intraocular pressure.

    Measured: postoperative day #1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Icare rebound tonometry, Tonopen applanation and Goldmann applanation in people with Intraocular Pressure, run by Duke University at 1 site in United States.

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 2 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 May 2016. 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 United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Feb 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Measurement of Intraocular Pressure (time frame: postoperative day #1). 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 May 2016.
