What is being measured

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

  1. pre-study: reliability of repeated measurements of excyclotorsion in degrees on SLO-fundus fotographs

    pre-study: inter- and intrarater reliability of the device with or without eye tracker; excyclotorsion in degrees (based on the line crossing the fovea and the center of the optic nerve head) as provided by the integrated algorithm by Heidelberg Spectralis

    Measured: 3 months

  2. study: excyclotorsion in degrees on SLO-fundus fotographs

    study: comparison of cyclotorsion measurements in healthy controls compared to patients with forth nerve palsy; excyclotorsion in degrees (based on the line crossing the fovea and the center of the optic nerve head) as provided by the integrated algorithm by Heidelberg Spectralis

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. study: excyclotorsion in degrees on tangent screen, double maddox and fundus photographs

    validation of the cyclotorsion measurement with the Heidelberg Spectralis device against tangent screen [degrees], double maddox [degrees] and fundus photographs [degrees]

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Heidelberg Spectralis OCT device in people with Trochlear Nerve Diseases, run by University of Zurich at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 2 inclusion and 5 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 13 Jun 2018. 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 Switzerland. 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?

pre-study: reliability of repeated measurements of excyclotorsion in degrees on SLO-fundus fotographs (time frame: 3 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02631369, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 13 Jun 2018.
