Trial summary

To date two different instruments are commercially available to measure retinal oxygen saturation and retinal vessel diameters: Dynamic Vessel Analyzer (DVA) and Oxymap. Retinal oxygen saturation analysis is based on spectroscopic evaluation of retinal fundus images. Read more about this study

About this study

To date two different instruments are commercially available to measure retinal oxygen saturation and retinal vessel diameters: Dynamic Vessel Analyzer (DVA) and Oxymap. Retinal oxygen saturation analysis is based on spectroscopic evaluation of retinal fundus images. Up to now no data comparing both instruments for the measurement of retinal oxygen saturation and vessel diameter are available in the literature.

Study objectives: To compare retinal oxygenation and retinal vessel diameters in healthy subjects and patients with diabetic retinopathy or retinal vein occlusion between 2 commercially available systems (DVA, Oxymap T1)

Study design: Open pilot study

Study population:

30 healthy volunteers, age 18-80 years 30 type 2 diabetic patients with mild or moderate non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy, age 18-80 years 30 patients with retinal vein occlusion, age 18-80 years

Topically administered medication:

Tropicamide (Mydriaticum "Agepha"®, Agepha, Vienna, Austria), dose: 1-2 drops per study day for dilation of the pupil Oxybuprocainhydrochloride combined with sodium fluorescein (Thilorbin®, Alcon Pharma GmbH, Freiburg, Germany), dose: 1 drop in one eye for measurements of intraocular pressure Nonylacidvanillylamide combined with Nicotinic-acid--ß-butoxyethylester (Finalgon®, Boehringer Ingelheim RCV GmbH \& Co KG, Vienna, Austria): topical on the earlobe

Methods:

Dynamic vessel analyzer Oxymap T1 Blood pressure and pulse rate measurement Applanation tonometry Oxygen and carbon dioxide partial pressure measurement in arterialized blood from earlobe

Main outcome variables:

Difference of oxygen saturation of retinal vessels between DVA and Oxymap T1

The motive for this investigation is to compare data between 2 commercially available instruments for the measurement of retinal oxygen saturation and retinal vessel diameter in healthy subjects as well as in patients with ocular disease associated with altered retinal oxygenation. Comparative data from both systems are currently not available. Data from this study will allow the comparison of studies performed with different systems. All oxygen measurement procedures are non-invasive and painless. Hence, the risk/benefit ratio appears to be acceptable.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dynamic Vessel Analyzer and Oxymap T1 in people with Healthy Subjects and Diabetic Retinopathy, run by Medical University of Vienna 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 2 inclusion and 4 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 31 Aug 2018. 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?

Difference of oxygen saturation of retinal vessels between DVA and Oxymap T1 (time frame: participants will be followed for the duration of outpatient clinic visit, an expected average of 1 days). 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 31 Aug 2018.
