About this study

Official title: The Use of FCSB in Medium-complex RRD - a Safety and Efficacy Evaluation

The objective of the study is to evaluate:

  1. Safety and efficacy of a novel foldable capsular scleral buckle (FCSB) in scleral buckling for primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) of medium complexity.
  2. Comparison between FCSB and pars plana vitrectomy in therapeutic effects and complications in the treatment of primary RRD of medium complexity.
Read the detailed description

Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) and scleral buckling (SB) are major choices in treating rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) of medium complexity. PPV is more prevailed since it improved internal search for breaks and elimination of vitreous traction. SB has unmatched advantages over PPV such as earlier rehabilitation, free from prolonged positioning, less complicated cataract or glaucoma. The novel foldable capsular scleral buckle (FCSB) can create a big bulge by pressing on the sclera and seal the break in bullous RRD without scleral drainage. In the study, differences of anatomic and functional results between PPV and FCSB in treating primary RRD of medium complexity are evaluated.

What is being measured

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

  1. anatomic success rate

    The success rate of retinal reattachment

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months

  2. metamorphopsia

    metamorphopsia is measured by M chart

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months

  3. Visual Results

    Best-Corrected Visual Acuity, and is measured by Snellen Chart, EDTRS Chart and charts designed for people with low vision

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The number of surgeries that achieved successful final retinal reattachment

    The number of surgeries the patient undergoes to achieve final retinal reattachment

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months

  2. Surgical Complications

    Surgical Complications, included EOM dysfunction,Choroidal detachment,Clinical CME,Macular pucker,Postoperative IOP \>21 mmHg with medications

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing foldable capsular scleral buckling and vitrectomy in people with Rhegmatogenous Retinal Detachment, run by Eye & ENT Hospital of Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 5 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Sep 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

anatomic success rate (time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 6 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?
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 24 Sep 2024.
