  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients older than 18.

What is being measured

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

  1. Field of view of GlasScope surgical microscope

    Measured: Up to 3 days after surgery

  2. Depth of field of GlasScope surgical microscope

    Measured: Up to 3 days after surgery

  3. 3D perception of GlasScope surgical microscope

    3D perception of GlasScope surgical microscope is assessed by the surgeon ability to perform surgical gentle procedures using the surgical tools on the eye tissues - both inner and posterior parts of the eye.

    Measured: Up to 3 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Surgeon fatigue and neck strain (questionnaire)

    Questioning the surgeons after surgery on the pain and stress during the use of Glasscope causing decreased performance/lack of concentration/fatigue, the complexity on keeping the eye-piece image in the surgeon sight, how the instrument prevents the surgeon situation awareness in the operating room, the stress and fatigue on the surgeon eyes for long duration of observation in the image

    Measured: Up to 7 days after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing GlasScope Surgical Microscope in people with Retinal Detachment, run by Elbit Systems LTD 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 5 inclusion and 4 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 Apr 2022. 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?

Field of view of GlasScope surgical microscope (time frame: Up to 3 days after surgery). The study lists 3 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 28 Apr 2022.
