About this study

Official title: A Single-Center Proof Of Concept Study of a Novel Comfortable and Stabilizing Chin & Forehead Rest Attachment for Slit Lamp Configuration Devices

In this study, participants will be imaged using two Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) devices: device N, a standard conventional OCT device with an invention (comfortable chin and forehead rest that can be adjusted to fit each individual's size) attached to the device; and device C, the standard conventional OCT device with no invention attached. The investigators will assess whether the chin and forehead rest attachment (invention) provides a more comfortable experience for patients.

Being tested
OCT Imaging Using Device N, OCT Imaging Using Device C

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Device C (OD-OS), then Device N (OD-OS)ExperimentalParticipants will be randomized to receive 1 macular scan on each eye and 1 optic nerve head (ONH) scan on each eye from two devices: device C, a standard conventional device with no attachment; and device N, the standard conventional device with the invention (comfortable chin and forehead rest that can be adjusted to fit each individual's size) attached to the device. Participants will first be imaged using device C starting with the right eye (OD), then left eye (OS). They will then be imaged using device N, starting with OD, then OS.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants Who Indicate Device N Provided a More Comfortable Experience, Compared With Device C

    Participants will be asked which device provided a more comfortable experience: Device C or Device N.

    Measured: Post-Imaging Session (Day 1)

  2. Comfort Level Rating of Device N on 0-5 Scale

    Participants will be asked to rate how comfortable Device N was, on a scale of 0-5. Higher scores indicate higher levels of comfort.

    Measured: Post-Imaging Session (Day 1)

  3. Comfort Level Rating of Device C on 0-5 Scale

    Participants will be asked to rate how comfortable Device C was, on a scale of 0-5. Higher scores indicate higher levels of comfort.

    Measured: Post-Imaging Session (Day 1)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Time Duration to Adjust for Number of Motion Artifacts Present With Device N Imaging

    The OCT imaging device includes an "eye tracking" feature that selects a specific location within the eye and constantly adjusts, i.e. tracks, for fine fixation adjustments that occur when a patient's eye is moving very slightly during imaging. The time to adjust for the number of motion artifacts present will be defined as the duration it takes from the moment the imager clicks "Acquire" on the device to when the progress bar is "Full."

    Measured: Imaging Session (Day 1)

  2. Time Duration to Adjust for Number of Motion Artifacts Present With Device C Imaging

    The OCT imaging device includes an "eye tracking" feature that selects a specific location within the eye and constantly adjusts, i.e. tracks, for fine fixation adjustments that occur when a patient's eye is moving very slightly during imaging. The time to adjust for the number of motion artifacts present will be defined as the duration it takes from the moment the imager clicks "Acquire" on the device to when the progress bar is "Full."

    Measured: Imaging Session (Day 1)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing OCT Imaging Using Device N and OCT Imaging Using Device C in people with Age-Related Macular Degeneration and Diabetic Retinopathy, run by NYU Langone Health 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 14 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 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 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 5 Nov 2024). 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?

Percentage of Participants Who Indicate Device N Provided a More Comfortable Experience, Compared With Device C (time frame: Post-Imaging Session (Day 1)). 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 5 Nov 2024.
