About this study

BACKGROUND: Primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) is one of a leading cause of blindness worldwide including Thailand. This problem impact to the overall health of people and health care system. Treatment guidelines of each stage is differenced. Therefore, factors that affect to treatment should be explored to plan for taking care patients in the future.

OBJECTIVES: The study aimed to examine the effects of cataract surgery by phaco- emulsification on intraocular pressure and to determine the factors associated with intraocular pressure among primary angle closure glaucoma patients.

BACKGROUND: Primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) is one of a leading cause of blindness worldwide including Thailand. This problem impact to the overall health of people and health care system. Treatment guidelines of each stage is differenced. Therefore, factors that affect to treatment should be explored to plan for taking care patients in the future.

OBJECTIVES: The study aimed to examine the effects of cataract surgery by phaco- emulsification on intraocular pressure and to determine the factors associated with intraocular pressure among primary angle closure glaucoma patients.

METHODS: A retrospective descriptive study was conducted in 121 patients with primary angle closure glaucoma who underwent phacoemulsification between October 1st 2017 and September 30th 2022. The preoperative and postoperative record form were used as the research instrument. Visual acuity, intraocular pressure, the number of glaucoma medications and ocular biometric parameters were collected. The descriptive statistics, Paired sample t-test, Repeated measures ANOVA and Multiple linear regression were used to analyze the outcomes. A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

What is being measured

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

  1. intraocular pressure

    effects of cataract surgery by phacoemulsification on intraocular pressure and to determine the factors associated with intraocular pressure among primary angle closure glaucoma patients. Units of measure assessment intraocular pressure by non contact tonometry(intraocular pressure in millimeters of Mercury) at one week, one month, three months and six months postoperatively

    Measured: six months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma, run by Phanatnikhom Hospital at 1 site in Thailand.

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 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Feb 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 Thailand. 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?

intraocular pressure (time frame: six 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 Feb 2024.
