Genetic testing (GT) (including targeted panels, exome and genome sequencing) is increasingly being used for patient care as it improves diagnosis and health outcomes. In spite of these benefits, genetic testing is a complex and costly health service. This results in unequal access, increased wait times and inconsistencies in care. The use of e-health tools to support genetic testing delivery can result in a better patient experience and reduced distress associated with waiting for results and empower patients to receive and act on medical results. We have previously developed and tested an interactive, adaptable and patient-centred digital decision support tool (Genetics ADvISER) to be used for genetic testing decision making, and have now developed the Genetics Navigator (GN), a patient-centred e-health navigation platform for end-to-end genetic service delivery. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the GN in an RCT in reducing distress with patients and parents of patients being offered genetic testing. Results of this trial will be used to establish whether the GN is effective to use in practice. If effective, GN could fill a critical clinical care gap and improve health outcomes and service use by reducing counselling burden as well as overuse, underuse and misuse of services. These are concerns policy makers seek to address through the triple aims of health care1. This study represents a significant advance in personalized health by assessing the effectiveness of this novel, comprehensive e-health platform to ultimately improve genetic service delivery, accessibility, patient experiences, and patient outcomes.
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a 3D imaging technology that has seen wide adoption within ophthalmology. However, optical access to the retinal periphery remains a challenge for conventional OCT systems. The study team plans to innovate peripheral retinal OCT imaging technology by first developing the first robotic OCT system capable of autonomously assisting the operator during imaging of the human peripheral retina using 3D active tracking and compensation and then by developing of the first OCT system designed for treatment of the retinal periphery.
The goal of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of novel stem cell formulation in patients having Geographic Atrophy (GA) Secondary to Dry Age-related Macular Degeneration (d-AMD). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Safety and tolerability of the novel stem cell formulation - Potential efficacy of the novel stem cell formulation Participants will receive a single subretinal injection in their study eye and followed up for safety. This is an India only study and the product is developed indigenously.
The goal of this research study is to compare two ultrawide field cameras to the gold standard imaging system to evaluate the back of the eye. The main question it aims to answer is the same results and information can be acquired from all of the cameras for evaluating and monitoring inherited retinal diseases (IRDs). Participants will: - undergo pupillary dilation - have photographs taken of the inside of the eyes using three different cameras
Macular edema in diabetes, defined as retinal thickening within two disc diameters of the center of the macula, results from retinal microvascular changes that compromise the blood-retinal barrier, causing leakage of plasma constituents into the surrounding retina and consequently retinal edema. Thickening of the basement membrane and reduction in the number of pericytes are believed to lead to increased permeability and incompetence of the retinal vasculature. This compromise of the blood-retinal barrier leads to the leakage of plasma constituents into the surrounding retina with subsequent retinal edema. Hypoxia produced by this mechanism can also stimulate the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) increases retinal vascular permeability, causes breakdown of the blood-retina barrier and results in retinal edema. Diabetic macular edema (DME) is the most common cause of visual reduction in patients with Diabetes Mellitus. The prevalence of DME globally is around 6.8 %. Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is the most common microvascular complication of diabetes and the leading cause of blindness worldwide. DME is a complication of diabetic retinopathy that affects the macula, which is located at the center of the retina and responsible for central vision. Bangladesh is the 10th country in the world for the number of adults living with diabetes with some 7.1 million (5.3-12.0). In Bangladesh, it is therefore expected that diabetic secondary complications, like DR, will increase along with the rising trend of diabetes mellitus. The use of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies has revolutionized in the treatment of many diseases. In recent years, millions of patients have been successfully treated with these biological agents. Ranibizumab is one such therapeutic monoclonal antibody for intraocular use. Ranibizumab is a humanized, recombinant, immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody fragment against vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) and thus prevents choroidal neovascularization. The small size of ranibizumab allows for enhanced diffusion into the retina and choroid.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IVB102 injection in subjects with XLRS.
This trial aims to provide a digital retinal image dataset from Pakistan, graded by three specialists according to the severity of Diabetic Retinopathy. The dataset aims to improve research and patient care.
The primary objective is to collect images on the P200TxE device in diseased eyes.
This prospective, multicenter, single-group, target-value clinical trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an Adaptive Optics ScanningLaser Ophthalmoscope(AOSLO) for ophthalmic examination.
