Trial summary

The aim of this study is to measure visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and visual field by SAP-method using a novel device Ocusweep compared to currently widely used methods. Addition to that, the aim is to validate a novel perimetry method (Visual Search Test, VST) which is based on reaction times in visual… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Measuring of Neuro-visual Functionality With New Human Visual System Device Ocusweep

The aim of this study is to measure visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and visual field by SAP-method using a novel device Ocusweep compared to currently widely used methods. Addition to that, the aim is to validate a novel perimetry method (Visual Search Test, VST) which is based on reaction times in visual decision- making task, where the subject is allowed to move eyes and where the fixation is verified by the subject himself in contrast to standard automatic perimetry (SAP) where prolonged stationary fixation and external fixation monitoring apparatus is required. Reaction-time based visual field device Ocusweep is compared to generally used SAP methods. Those tests will be done for healthy volunteers and for persons with diagnosed eye or brain disease.

Ocusweep OcuRT vision based choice reaction time test is validated for test repeatability and compared to Trail Making Test (TMT), Useful Field of View (UFOV) and Vienna Test System (VTS) reaction time tests. To evaluate the ability to detect unreliable results, OcuRT test is also done under cognitive load and with instructions to cheat the test.

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual acuity

    Visual acuity is measured as logMAR unit at the one visit for each patient using a novel reaction-time based visual field device and comparable method.

    Measured: One visit per one patient (1h/visit)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Contrast sensitivity

    Contrast sensitivity is measured as logCS unit at the one visit for each patient using a novel reaction-time based visual field device and comparable method.

    Measured: One visit per one patient (1h/visit)

  2. Reaction time visual field

    Reaction time is measured using a novel reaction-time based visual field device and compared with generally used visual field program.

    Measured: One visit per one patient (1h/visit)

  3. Vision based choice reaction time

    Reaction time is measured with Ocusweep OcuRT test three times to asses repeatability of the test. OcuRT reaction time results will be compared to Trail Making Test (TMT), Useful Field of View (UFOV) and Vienna Test System (VTS) reaction time tests. To evaluate the ability to detect unreliable results, OcuRT will also be done under cognitive load and with instructions to cheat the test.

    Measured: One visit per one test subject (1h/visit)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ocusweep and Ocusweep OcuRT in people with Visual Impairment, run by Ocuspecto Oy at 1 site in Finland.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2020. 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 Finland. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Markku Leinonen, Dr (markku.leinonen@ocuspecto.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Visual acuity (time frame: One visit per one patient (1h/visit)). 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 17 Jun 2020.
