Trial Outcomes & Findings for Comparison of Tear Evaporation Rate With Systane Complete in Dry Eye and Non-Dry Eye (NCT NCT04091581)

NCT ID: NCT04091581

Last Updated: 2022-06-22

Results Overview

Tear film evaporation rate (% relative humidity per second) was performed using a novel evaporimeter as a non-invasive measurement of tear film evaporation. The slope was calculated from the change in humidity between 7 to 17.5 seconds while the eye was open and between 10 to 17.5 seconds when the eye was closed. Data from the right eye was analyzed.

Measure
Non-Dry Eye
Tear evaporation was measured prior to and after a single 15 µl instillation of Systane Complete was instilled in people with an Ocular Surface Disease Index score \<13 and a non-invasive Keratograph break-up time \>/= 10 seconds in the worst eye.
Dry Eye
Tear evaporation was measured prior to and after a single 15 µl instillation of Systane Complete in people with an Ocular Surface Disease Index score \>/= 13 and a non-invasive Keratograph break-up time \</= 5 seconds in the worst eye.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (Prior to instillation); 10, 30 and 60 minutes post instillation of eye drop

Population: The analysis population includes all participants that were exposed to Systane Complete, and excludes the one dry eye subject that was lost to follow-up.

Tear film evaporation rate (% relative humidity per second) was performed using a novel evaporimeter as a non-invasive measurement of tear film evaporation. The slope was calculated from the change in humidity between 7 to 17.5 seconds while the eye was open and between 10 to 17.5 seconds when the eye was closed. Data from the right eye was analyzed.
