Trial Outcomes & Findings for Intra-Operative Metrics With CENTURION® and INFINITI® Vision Systems (NCT NCT01848288)

NCT ID: NCT01848288

Last Updated: 2015-04-07

Results Overview

Cumulative Dissipated Energy (CDE) is an estimation of the energy at the incision site experienced during the removal of cataractous lens and is measured in %-secs. The incision is defined as 5.6mm back from the cutting edge of the tip. A lower CDE indicates that less energy was present at the incision site.

Participant Flow

Participants were recruited from 2 investigative sites located in the US and 1 investigative site located in Spain.

Of the 112 enrolled, 12 participants were exited as screen failures prior to randomization. One participant was randomized twice in error. This reporting group includes all randomized participants (100).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 0 (operative day), each eye

Population: This analysis population includes all participants who were randomized to a surgical system and had non-missing values at the specific time point for each arm group, respectively.

Measure
CENTURION Vision System
n=98 Participants
CENTURION® Vision System randomly assigned to first surgical eye, with INFINITI® Vision System assigned to second surgical eye (fellow eye). Each eye received a single treatment with estimated duration of less than 30 minutes. The second eye surgery occurred within 14 days of first eye surgery.
INFINITI Vision System
n=97 Participants
INFINITI® Vision System randomly assigned to first surgical eye, with CENTURION® Vision System assigned to second surgical eye (fellow eye). Each eye received a single treatment with estimated duration of less than 30 minutes. The second eye surgery occurred within 14 days of first eye surgery.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 0 (operative day), each eye

Population: This analysis population includes all participants who were randomized to a surgical system and had non-missing values at the specific time point for each arm group, respectively.

Aspiration fluid used is the amount of aspiration fluid used during the removal of the cataractous lens. A lower value indicates that less fluid was removed from the eye.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 0 (operative day), each eye

Population: This analysis population includes all participants who were randomized to a surgical system and had non-missing values at the specific time point for each arm group, respectively.

Aspiration Time indicated the amount of time the system was aspirating during the removal of the cataractous lens. A lower value indicates that the surgeon spent less time aspirating fluid and material from the eye during surgery.
