iCare回弹式眼压计测量的重复性及与Goldmann压平式眼压计测量值间的一致性研究

背景Goldmann压平式眼压计（GAT）是眼压测量的金标准，但由于操作复杂且需要良好配合而影响其临床应用。iCare回弹式眼压计（RBT）是一种新型的压平式眼压计，但需进行充分的临床应用评价。目的对iCareRBT检查者间及检查者内测量的可重复性及iCareRBT与GAT测量值间的一致性进行研究。方法2位操作者使用iCareRBT对36例青光眼及可疑青光眼患者双眼各测量1次，分别记录读数，对iCareRBT检查者间的重复性进行评价。2位操作者使用iCareRBT分别测量56例青光眼和52例青光眼患者，并对可疑青光眼患者的双眼进行测量，并记录眼压读数，对iCareRBT检查者内的重复性进行评价。检查者2对青光眼及可疑青光眼患者92例182眼先使用iCareRBT进行测量，然后检查者1使用Goldmann压平式眼压计进行测量，对iCareRBT和GAT的测量值进行一致性检验，并评价iCareRBT测量眼压的安全性。结果iCareRBT检查者间眼压测量值相关因子r右眼为0．937，左眼为0．887；检查者1对右眼和左眼重复测量眼压值的r值分别为0．986、0．969，检查者2所测右眼和左眼的r值分别为0．990、0．979；iCareRBT测量值与CAT测量值的均值分别为（18．74±8．36）mmHg、（19．33±8．20）mmHg，二者差值为（-0．59±2．60）mmHg，95％CI为（-5．80～4．60），2种测量法相关因子r为0．951。所有受试者对iCareRBT的测量无不适反应。结论iCareRBT具有检查者间和检查者内的高度可重复性及很好的耐受性，iCareRBT测量值与GAT测量值间具有高度相关性。

Reproducibility and tolerability of iCare rebound tonometer and its agreement evaluation with Goldmann applanation tonometry

Background Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) is a gold standard of intraocular pressure measurement.But its utilization iS limited because of its complexity and high requirement of cooperation.iCare rebound tonometer (iCare RBT) is a new type of applanation tonometry,and its accuracy and safety in clinical application need to be evaluated.Objective Present study was to investigate the reproducibility and tolerability of iCare RBT and its measurement agreement with GAT over a wide intraocular pressure (IOP) range. Methods The IOP were measured in bilateral eyes of 36 glaucoma and glaucoma suspect patients by 2 examinees with iCare RBT at the 1-minute interval to assess the interobserver reproducibility.Then the IOP of both eyes from 56 Subjeets and other 52 subjects were separately measured twice for each by two operators with iCare RBT for the evaluation of intraobserver reproducibility.Finally.IOP of 182 eyes of 92 glaucoma and glaucoma suspect patients was obtained by examiner 2 with RBT first and examiner 1 with GAT subsequently at a 2.minute interval in a masked fashion to perform an agreement evaluation of two readings by using Bland-Ahman method.The tolerance of subjects to iCare RBT measurement were surveyed.Oral informed consent was obtained prior to the IOP measurement. Results Concerning the iCare RBT readings.interobserver correlation coefficients were 0.937 in the right eye and 0.887 in the left eye.Intraobserver correlation coefficients of examiner 1 were 0.986 in the left eyes and 0.969 in the fight eyes.And those of examiner 2 were 0.990 and 0.979.Mcan values of iCare RBT readings and GAT were(18.74±8.36)mmHg and(19.33±8.20)mmHg and the mean difference values(iCare-GAT)was(-0.59 4±2.60)mmHg with the 95%confidence interval of -5.80-4.60 mmHg.The correlation coefficient between two modalities of IOP measurement WaS 0.95 1.No severe pain and discomfort were complained in all the subjects during or after measurement of iCare RBT. Conclusion iCare RBT has good interobserver and intraobserver reproducibility and good tolerance.It was proved that this is a good correlation between iCare RBT readings and GAT readings.
