Study of Etacoat in Patients With Cataract Surgery Via the Anterior Chamber

A Prospective, Single Center, Non-comparative, 90-Day Follow-up, Postmarket Clinical Investigation of Etacoat in Patients With Cataract Surgery Via the Anterior Chamber

This is a prospective, single center, non-comparative, 90-day follow-up, post-market clinical investigation of etacoat in patients undergoing cataract surgery.

The performance is evaluated by the preservation of endothelial cells measured by specular microscopy at the follow-up visit in comparison to baseline values.

• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The study patients will be recruited by the investigator, among patients scheduled to receive a standard cataract surgery taking inclusion and exclusion criteria into account. The investigator may also offer participation in the study to potential candidates identified in their patient database.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients indicated for cataract surgery via the anterior chamber
• A negative urine pregnany test at Visit 1 or 2
• Capability to understand information about the investigation, including patients' obligations, and willingness to take part, as evidenced by signed and dated informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patient who are known to be hypersensitive to HPMC or other components of the device
• Patients with corneal scars or corneal dystrophies interfering with study measurements
• Abnormal intraocular pressure which would interfere with surgery and follow up (in opinion of the investigator)
• Any other condition that in the opinion of the investigator would interfere with the participation in this investigation
• Any person dependent on the investigator or employees of the investigation site institution or the Sponsor
• Current or previous (within 30 days of enrollment) treatment with another investigational drug and/or medical device or participation in another clinical study
• Patients whose participation in clinical trials is prohibited by the Austrian Medical Devices Act

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Time Frame
Specular microscopy to measure the preservation of endothelium	90 days post surgery compared to baseline

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Specular microscopy to measure the corneal thickness		post surgery, 1 day and 90 days post surgery compared to baseline
Intraocular pressure measurement		post surgery, 1 day and 90 days post surgery compared to baseline
Questionnaire to assess the satisfaction with the application	Questionnaire contains the subjective evaluation by the investigator of the IMD's rheological properties as well as the maintenance of the patient's anterior chamber and dome. Scale for the chamber and dome maintenance ranges from flat (worst case) to full chamber (best case) maintained. Scale for rheological properties ranges from dispersive (best case) to cohesive (worst case).	day 0
