About this study

Improvement in visual acuity and retinal anatomy one year after surgery is assessed and compared to data preoperative and 3 months after surgery

Read the detailed description

Improvement in visual acuity and retinal anatomy (documented by optical coherence tomography) one year after surgery is assessed and compared to data preoperative and 3 months after surgery. Improvements in retinal morphology are analysed by remission of optical coherence biomarkers after surgery. Aim of the study is to examine possible improvements of surgical outcomes in the period up to the one year follow-up.

Being tested
visual acuity testing, optical coherence tomography
Medical subject headings
Epiretinal Membrane

What participants receive

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

  • visual acuity testingOther

    testing of visual ycuity by ETDRS charts

  • optical coherence tomographyDevice

    optical coherence tomography generates sectional slides of the retinal tomography with light

What is being measured

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

  1. visual acuity

    visual acuity testing with EDTRS charts

    Measured: 3 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Epiretinal Membrane, run by Vienna Institute for Research in Ocular Surgery at 1 site in Austria.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 15 Mar 2024. 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 Austria. 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?

visual acuity (time frame: 3 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 15 Mar 2024.
