About this study

Official title: Validation of the Utility of a Universal Cataract Intelligence Platform

This study established and validated a universal artificial intelligence (AI) platform for collaborative management of cataracts involving multi-level clinical scenarios and explored an AI-based medical referral pattern to improve collaborative efficiency and resource coverage.The datasets were labeled using a three-step strategy: (1) categorize slit lamp photographs into four separate capture modes; (2) diagnose each photograph as a normal lens, cataract or a postoperative eye; and (3) based on etiology and severity, further classify each diagnosed photograph for a management strategy of referral or follow-up. A deep residual convolutional neural network (CS-ResCNN) was used for the image classification task. Moreover, we integrated the cataract AI agent with a real-world multi-level referral pattern involving self-monitoring at home, primary healthcare, and specialized hospital services.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic accuracy of the cataract AI agent

    AUC: area under the receiver operating curve; accuracy (ACC) = (TP + TN) / (TP + TN + FP + FN); sensitivity (SEN) = TP / (TP + FN); specificity (SPE) = TN / (TN + FP); TP = true positive; TN = true negative; FP = false positive; FN = false negative.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cataract AI agent in people with Cataract and Artificial Intelligence, run by Sun Yat-sen University.

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 9 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Diagnostic accuracy of the cataract AI agent (time frame: 6 months). 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 9 Aug 2018.
