NCT05043077 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 83

Last updated 2025-03-18

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose is to test the hypothesis that microdrop instillation of combined phenylephrine 1.67% and tropicamide 0.33% eyedrops causes at least equal mydriasis compared with standard drop instillation of the same mydriatic regimen, which constitutes routine care for pupil dilation during retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) screening in our neonatal intensive care unit. Comparison, also, will be made to the subsequent adverse events and the drug concentration in peripheral blood samples.
