简要总结
InstitutionalEthics committee approval will be obtained and trial registered with ClinicalTrial Registry of India.
Patientsinformed consent will be taken and the procedure explained to them in their ownlanguage.
Studydesign: Prospective, randomized, comparative, hospital-based, single centerinterventional clinical study in patients with planned phacoemulsifictionsurgery.
StudySetting: Nethradhama Superspeciality Eye Hospital, Bangalore.
Patientselection criteria:
Patientswill be enrolled into the clinical study and randomized in a ratio of 1:1 bysimple random sampling through computer generated lottery method.
Thepatients will also be willing to attend routine follow-up care as describedbelow (1 day up to 6 months post-surgery).
StudyDuration: Time frame for patient visits and examination are pre-operative, dayof surgery, postoperative days 1, 15, month 1, 3 and 6
Method ofdata collection:
Datawill be collected on the demographic profile (age, gender, address, andoccupation) and ocular parameters of the patients, as measured by slit lampexamination, 90D lens with slit lamp, and indirect ophthalmoscopy.
Before thesurgery, all patients will undergo a complete ophthalmic examination includingsubjective refraction, slit lamp biomicroscopy, noncontact tonometry (TopconCT-80), dilated fundus examination, OCT macula. (Optovue RTVue 100, USA)
Thestudy participants will be divided into two groups –
StudyGroup: Sub-Tenon’s triamcinolone acetonide (12 mg/ml) and 0.1ml intracameralmoxifloxacin (0.5%) (Auromox, Aurolab, India) administered at the end ofsurgery.
ControlGroup: Standard post-operative topical antibiotic-steroid regimen
Interventionand Procedure:
PhacoemulsificationSurgery: All patients will undergo either standard phacoemulsification cataractsurgery or Femstosecond assisted laser assisted phacoemulsification by a singlesurgeon. All procedures will be conducted under topical anesthesia.
PostoperativeIntervention:
