What participants receive

canaloplasty and phacoemulsificationProcedure or surgery
Also called canaloplasty ab externo, canaloplasty ab interno, minicanaloplasty
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| canaloplasty ab externo and phacoemulsification | Active comparator | As soon as the two scleral flaps: deep and superficial -similar to deep sclerectomy are dissected, the phacoemulsification with PCIOL insertion is performed. After excision of the deep flap the descemets window and ostia of Schlemm canal are created, the microcatheter is placed in the canal and guided for 360 degrees within the canal. Surgeon observes the location of beacon tip through sclera and injects the Healon GV. Then a suture is tied to the distal tip and the microcatheter is withdrawn. As it appears at the other ostium of canal the microcatheter it separated from the suture.Then suture loop is tightened to tension the trabecular meshwork. The superficial flap is sutured watertight to prevent bleb formation Receives: Procedure: canaloplasty and phacoemulsification |
| canaloplasty ab interno and phacoemulsification | Active comparator | This variant of canaloplasty spares conjunctival surface. First phacoemulsification and PCIOL placement is performed. The Schlemm's canal is reached through goniotomy through anterior chamber. Similarly microcatheter is inserted and viscodilatator applicated. The key difference, is that no tensioning suture is left after the catheter is withdrawn. phacoemulsification is performed. Receives: Procedure: canaloplasty and phacoemulsification |
| minicanaloplasty and phacoemulsification | Active comparator | The dissected conjunctival flap is of minimal size. The scleral flaps are sized: superficial flap 3x1mm, and deep flap: 1x1 mm- with no removal of the deep flap. Afterwards phacoemulsification part is performed. The microcatheterization and viscodilatation are conducted as in the traditional procedure.The conjunctiva is closed with one suture or coagulation Receives: Procedure: canaloplasty and phacoemulsification |

Contact Marek Rękas, MD, PhD, Professor (+48604113659, rekaspl@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
mean IOP (time frame: change form baseline at 24 months). 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?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02908633, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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.
