Patients with intraretinal cystoid changes before scheduled membrane peeling for epiretinal membranes are included. Patients are randomized for balanced salt solution (BSS) or air-tamponade.
Patients with intraretinal cystoid changes before scheduled membrane peeling for epiretinal membranes are included. 23G-pars plana vitrectomy with membrane peeling is performed in all patients. Before surgery patients are randomized for BSS or air-tamponade. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is performed 5 days after and 3 months after surgery, visual acuity is measured 3 months after surgery.
Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.
Exclusion Criteria:
BSS is given at the end of surgery
Procedure: BSS arm
air-tamponade is given at the end of surgery
Procedure: air arm
epiretinal membranes are excised during membrane peeling and air-tamponade is left in the eye
epiretinal membranes are excised during membrane Peeling and BSS is left in the eye
resorption of intraretinal cystoid changes after surgery
occurrence of intraretinal cystoid changes will be diagnosed by OCT
Time frame: 3 months
Ran from Nov 2017 to primary completion in Dec 2019, 25 months.
Of 30 interventional studies with no phase under Epiretinal Membrane, half reached primary completion within 29 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 15 and three quarters within 90. This study's 25 months is below that.
