Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To assess the feasibility of using intravenous ICG to characterize the vascular perfusion of ovaries during gynecologic surgery

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of intravenous ICG administration to facilitate assessments of ovarian vascular perfusion. Historically, assessment of ovarian perfusion has been performed visually or via ultrasound with Doppler evaluation. In patients with ovarian endometriomas, evidence of ovarian interstitial microvascular injury has been demonstrated similarly by the presence of low flow and high RI. The use of ICG to evaluate ovarian perfusion specifically has not been reported. The use of ICG for intraoperative perfusion assessment of the ovary could provide more information about the health of the ovary and inform the surgical approach to ovarian pathology.

ICG will be injected intravenously to assess ovarian perfusion in the presence or absence (control) of pathology. Near infrared fluorescence imaging will be used to illuminate the ICG. The extent of perfusion will be determined using digital imaging software.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Administration of ICG

ICG will be injected intravenously to assess ovarian perfusion in the presence or absence (control) of pathology. Near infrared fluorescence imaging will be used to illuminate the ICG. The extent of perfusion will be determined using digital imaging software. ICG will be stored at the NM Investigational Pharmacy and administered intravenously by the anesthesiologist at the direction of the surgeon during surgical procedure.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

ICG

Intervention Type DRUG

Indocyanine green (ICG) is a Food and Drug (FDA)-approved tricarbocyanine dye that is fluorescent under near-infrared (NIR) light. ICG solutions for injection often contain sodium iodide. ICG is water soluble and when introduced intravenously, it is bound by plasma proteins, namely albumin. The intravascular half-life of ICG is 3-4 minutes with rapid hepatic clearance.
