Brief Summary

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

Objective and subjective comparison between the use of povidone-iodine 1% vs 5% as antiseptic in patients that need anti-VEGF intravitreal injection

Detailed Description

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

Randomized, prospective clinical trial. One group was intervened with povidone-iodine at 5% and the other at 1% as antiseptic for anti-VEGF intravitreal injection. Each patient was evaluated before and after the injection of anti-VEGF for tear break up time, bulbar redness and ocular surface satining with fluorescein. Pain perception was also evaluated 15 minutes after the injection and 48 hours after.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Clinical, prospective, randomized trial. Pre anti-VEGF intravitreal injection, with OCULUS Keratopgrapph 5M topograph, non invasive tear breaking time, bulbar redness, and Oxford scale with fluorescein staining were measured. During anti-VEGF injection, tetracaíne was use as anestetic. Povidone-iodine 1% or 5% was randomized as antiseptic. After anti-VEGF intravitreal injection, patients were examined again for tear bkreaking time, bulbar redness and Oxford sacle, plus pain 15 minutes after injection. Finally, two days after the injection, patients were interviwed by telephone about their pain.
Primary Study Purpose

OTHER

Blinding Strategy

SINGLE

Participants
Patients did not know which percentage of povidone-iodine was utilized during their injection.

Tear breaking time and bulbar redness were automized results by Keraatopgrah. Oxford scale pre and post injection was staged by an investigator that did not know the group in which the patient was.

Study Groups

Povidone-iodine 1%

Povidone-iodine 1% was used as antiseptic during anti-VEGF intravitreal injection

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Change of normal concentration of povidone-iodine 5% to 1%

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Normal concentration of povidone-iodine during anti-VEGF intravitreal injection was 5%. That concentration was utilized in the control group, and 1% in the experimental group.

Povidone-iodine 5%

Povidone-iodine 5% was used as antiseptic during anti-VEGF intravitreal injection

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Change of normal concentration of povidone-iodine 5% to 1%

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Normal concentration of povidone-iodine during anti-VEGF intravitreal injection was 5%. That concentration was utilized in the control group, and 1% in the experimental group.
