Diagnostic accuracy of the iCare rebound tonometer compared to the Perkins applanation tonometer in assessing intraocular pressure in rural patients [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Vision health is recognized as a critical unmet need in North America. The ocular morbidity associated with glaucoma results from increased intraocular pressure (IOP) and early detection is crucial for the management of glaucoma.

TONOMETRIA DA ARTÉRIA FEMORAL EM CÃES SAUDÁVEIS E COM DOENÇA VALVAR MITRAL DEGENERATIVA CRÔNICA

Ciência Animal Brasileira, 2016
Applanation tonometry is a method capable of measuring blood pressure in an artery. In addition to speculation about the reason for the variations in amplitude of femoral pulse waves in dogs with chronic degenerative mitral valve disease (CDMVD), in ...

Reutilization of disposable rebound tonometer probes: Risk or return?

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023
Purpose: An advantage of rebound tonometry (RT) is its ease of use so that it can also be operated by health care technicians. However, the cost of the disposable measuring probes is high and their reuse carries the risk of infection.

Dynamic contour tonometry vs. non-contact tonometry and their relation with corneal thickness [PDF]

, 2016
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the concordance between intraocular pressure (IOP) values obtained with a dynamic contour tonometer (DCT) and a non-contact tonometer (NCT) in healthy patients and to investigate the effect of central corneal ...

Clinical outcomes of the PAUL glaucoma implant in primary open‐angle and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma eyes after failed glaucoma surgeries

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study assesses the PAUL® glaucoma implant (PGI) in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PEXG) after failed glaucoma surgery. Given PEXG's more aggressive nature, limited research exists on PGI outcomes in this subgroup. This study aims to compare PGI's efficacy and safety in both conditions. Methods A

Different methods for measuring intraocular pressure [PDF]

Halo 194, 2019
Tonometry is a method for measuring intraocular pressure (IOP). Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) represents a golden standard for measuring IOP. The measurement is conducted by measuring the force needed to straighten out a certain area of the cornea.

Comparison Between Dynamic Contour Tonometry and Goldmann Applanation Tonometry [PDF]

Korean Journal of Ophthalmology, 2009
To compare the intraocular pressures (IOPs) measured by dynamic contour tonometry (DCT) and Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT), and to investigate the association of IOPs on eyes of varying central corneal thickness (CCT).In this prospective study, 451 eyes of 233 subjects were enrolled. IOPs were measured by GAT and DCT. CCT was measured three times

Incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of numerical hypotony and choroidal effusion following PRESERFLO MicroShunt implantation

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the incidence, outcomes, and risk factors of numerical hypotony (NH) and choroidal effusion (CE) following standalone PRESERFLO MicroShunt (PMS) implantation. Methods Primary open‐angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PXG) patients with uni‐ or bilateral surgery at a tertiary university hospital were ...

Digital Photoplethysmography for Assessment of Arterial Stiffness: Repeatability and Comparison with Applanation Tonometry. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Arterial stiffness is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and can be assessed by applanation tonometry by measuring pulse wave velocity (PWV) and augmentation index (AIX) by pressure pulse wave analysis (PWA).
