View clinical trials related to Retinal Artery Occlusion.
Filter by:Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is an ophthalmologic emergency which leads to severe and permanent vision loss. There is no evidence-based therapy for CRAO. The objective of this GION study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of KUS121 intravitreal (IVT) injection in participants with acute non-arteritic CRAO.
Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is an ophthalmic emergency which leads to devastating visual function defects and poor prognosis. Though traditional conservative treatments are widely used, none of them is proved to be effective. A number of meta-analyses and observational studies indicate intravenous thrombolysis to be beneficial in CRAO. Selective intra-arterial thrombolysis (IAT) introducing rt-PA directly into the ophthalmic circulation by super-selective microcatheterization may reduce the complications such as intracranial and systemic hemorrhage. The residual visual field is significant for patients with CRAO who have poor central visual acuity. Thus, it is clinically significant to study the changes in visual fields in eyes with CRAO.

Comparison of high-resolution optical coherence tomography (High-Res-OCT) to conventional imaging modalities for the diagnosis of eye diseases
Non-arteritic, thromboembolic central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is an acute neurovascular-ophthalmological emergency which leads to severe and permanent vision loss; no evidence-based therapy does exist. Two recent meta-analyses indicate early intravenous thrombolysis to be beneficial in CRAO. Therefore, the REVISION randomized placebo-controlled interventional trial will investigate intravenous alteplase in CRAO as it is practiced in acute ischemic stroke, i.e. within 4.5 hours after symptom onset. The REVISION observational study will evaluate retinal changes on optical coherence tomography (OCT) in patients within 12 hours of CRAO onset, and the REVISION substudy, which will be conducted adjunct to either the interventional or the observational study, will evaluate the value of the retrobulbar spot sign for prediction of outcome and treatment response.
Blindness can be caused by many ocular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, age-related macular degeneration, pathologic myopia and glaucoma. Without timely diagnosis and adequate medical intervention, the visual impairment can become a great burden on individuals as well as the society. It is estimated that China has 110 million patients under the attack of diabetes, 180 million patients with hypertension, 120 million patients suffering from high myopia and 200 million people over 60 years old, which suggest a huge population at the risk of blindness. Despite of this crisis in public health, our society has no more than 3,000 ophthalmologists majoring in fundus oculi disease currently. As most of them assembling in metropolitan cities, health system in this field is frail in primary hospitals. Owing to this unreasonable distribution of medical resources, providing medical service to hundreds of millions of potential patients threatened with blindness is almost impossible. To solve this problem, this software (MCS) was developed as a computer-aided diagnosis to help junior ophthalmologists to detect 13 major retina diseases from color fundus photographs. This study has been designed to validate the safety and efficiency of this device.
TENecteplase in Central Retinal Artery Occlusion (TenCRAOS): A Prospective, randomized-controlled, double-dummy, double-blind phase 3 multi-centre trial of TNK 0.25 mg/kg + placebo vs. ASA + placebo (2 arms with 1:1 block randomization). A Prospective, randomized-controlled, double-dummy, double-blind phase 3 multi-centre trial of TNK 0.25 mg/kg + placebo vs. ASA + placebo (2 arms with 1:1 block randomization). At all participating centers, ophthalmologists are involved in the diagnosis and visual outcome measurements using a standardized protocol. The patients will be promptly examined by the ophthalmologist. As soon as the CRAO is diagnosed by the ophthalmologist, the patients will be managed in the stroke unit during treatment, monitoring, and medical investigations. After treatment in the stroke unit, the patients will be re-examined by an ophthalmologist and a neurologist as an out-patient at (30 ±5) and 90 (±15) days
This is a search strategy for determining the prevalence of ocular complications in inflammatory rheumatic diseases for the purposes of a meta analysis.
This study investigates a new technology to assess the structure and function inside the eye. Retinal imaging of subjects with inner and outer retinal defects to detect areas of abnormal structure and function compared to other visual function tests.
Purpose of the study is to examine the retinal blood flow in chronic cases of retinal artery occlusion with non-invasive, non-contact optical coherence tomography angiography.
