Correlation Between Silicone-oil Related Ocular Complications and ITMES Score (CLIN-ITEMS) (CLIN-ITEMS)

January 17, 2024 updated by: Mario R Romano, Cliniche Humanitas Gavazzeni

Prospective, multicentric, observational study aimed to evaluate the correlation between the value of the InTraocular EMulsion of Silicone oil (ITMES) score assessed at clinical examination and silicone oil-related ocular complications. This will allow to clinically validate the ITEMS score, as clinical tool.

Demographic data and clinical findings, including the ITEMS score, of patients undergoing to vitrectomy and silicone oil tamponade or removal of silicone oil or having one silicone oil-filled eye, will be collected at the baseline and at each follow-up visit (at 1-day, 1-, 3- and 6-month after surgery).

The prognostic performance of the ITEMS score will be evaluated in agreement with the TRIPOD statement.

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

All adult patients meeting the inclusion criteria

Description

Inclusion Criteria: One eye requiring pars plana vitrectomy and silicone oil/heavy silicone oil tamponade, OR pars plana vitrectomy and removal of silicone oil/heavy silicone oil OR one silicone-oil filled eye.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • untreated or uncontrolled ocular disease leading to unacceptable higher risk of intra- and post-operative complications, such as uncontrolled ocular inflammation or infection, untreated ocular malignancy and uncontrolled glaucoma;
  • uncontrolled severe systemic disease related to significantly higher operative risk;
  • pregnant women due to the specific risks related to supine position during surgery, operative time, risks of retrobulbar anesthesia, and intraoperative and postoperative drugs;
  • inability to give written consent.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Correlation between the value of the ITMES score and any silicone oil-related ocular complication
Time Frame: Baseline, 1 day, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months
The InTraocular EMulsion of Silicone oil (ITEMS) grading system has been proposed for the assessment of silicone oil emulsion to more reliably quantify the presence and extent of any SO emulsion, applicable in a daily clinical setting and validated through an expert panel consensus procedure (Romano MR, et al, INTRAOCULAR EMULSION OF SILICONE OIL (ITEMS) GRADING SYSTEM: An Evidence-Based Expert-Led Consensus. Retina 2023 Aug 1;43(8):1370-1376)
Baseline, 1 day, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures
