NCT ID: NCT04723160 Completed - Clinical trials for Diabetic Retinopathy

Computer Aided Diagnosis of Multiple Eye Fundus Diseases From Color Fundus Photograph

Start date: August 10, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

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.

NCT ID: NCT04401982 Completed - Ocular Hypertension Clinical Trials

Measuring the Effects of Rhopressa on Episcleral and Retinal Blood Flow in Ocular Hypertension and Glaucoma Suspects

Start date: March 15, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Rhopressa effectively lowers intra-ocular pressure by improving conventional outflow and decreasing episcleral venous pressure. While this may result in improved episcleral venous flow, current methods to quantify episcleral blood flow in vivo are rudimentary and unable to accurately and precisely determine flow. Proof that Rhopressa effectively increases episcleral venous flow would differentiate it from other medications. Furthermore, this evidence could galvanize interest in the use of Rhopressa after popular Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) procedures. In future studies, MIGS procedures could be used to improve the proximal outflow pathway, and Rhopressa to enhance distal outflow. Specific Aim: To determine the effect of Rhopressa on episcleral venous outflow and retinal blood flow in a cohort of treatment-naïve ocular hypertensive and glaucoma suspect patients. Hypothesis: Rhopressa increases episcleral venous flow and retinal blood flow from baseline at both 1 hour and 1 week after initiation of therapy.
