About this study

Official title: Research and Quantification of Factors Influencing Endothelial Damage During Phacoemulsification

The aim of this study is to determine the principal factors that influence endothelial cell loss three month post cataract surgery.

Methods: Multi center observational Cohort study, inclusion period from 12/01/2022 to 10/06/2022. One hundred and seventy-five eyes of hundred and four patients who have appointment for cataract surgical indication were included. The percentage of corneal endothelial cell loss was quantified using specular microscopy before and 3 months after the surgery.

14 variables (pre-operative and intra-operative) that could be associated to endothelial cell injury were selected.

A bivariate analysis of relationship between these factors and endothelial cell loss at 3 months was performed by simple linear regression (Wilcoxon and Fischer tests). Multivariate analysis was performed by multiple linear regression in order to identify the factors independently related to endothelial cell loss.

What is being measured

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

  1. The difference in central corneal endothelial cell density (cells/mm²) between the 1st preoperative measurement and the postoperative measurement at 3 months.

    Specular counts were performed by the orthoptists, residents or physicians of the department using a Nidek CEM-530 specular microscope with automated central cell counting without corneal contact. Three measurements were performed at each consultation and the average of these three measurements was reported.

    Measured: 3 months after cataract surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Postoperative visual acuity

    best spectacle corrected visual acuity is evaluated using Monoyer scale, scores ranging from 1 to 10, higher scores mean a better outcome; score 10 is the best.

    Measured: 3 months after cataract surgery

  2. Postoperative corneal edema

    Corneal edema is measured using specular microscope with pachymeter

    Measured: 3 months after cataract surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Endothelial Cell Loss, Corneal and Cataract, run by Centre Hospitalier Régional Metz-Thionville at 1 site in France.

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 5 inclusion and 8 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 10 Sep 2022. 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 France. 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?

The difference in central corneal endothelial cell density (cells/mm²) between the 1st preoperative measurement and the postoperative measurement at 3 months. (time frame: 3 months after cataract surgery). 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 10 Sep 2022.
