About this trial

The objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy of implementing the AI-SaMD(VUNO Med®-Fundus AI™) alongside routine clinical practice for the detection of diabetic retinopathy.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adults aged 19 years or older.

A documented diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Ability to communicate adequately and provide written informed consent for participation in the study.

Disqualifiers

A prior diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy at the time of screening.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • VUNO Med®-Fundus AI™

    Device

    VUNO Med®-Fundus AI™ is an artificial intelligence-based fundus image detection and diagnostic support software. The software automatically identifies abnormal retinal findings and provides information on the type and location of detected abnormalities to aid clinical decision-making.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

True Referral Rate

The true referral rate is defined as the proportion of subjects who were diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy by an ophthalmologist among those referred to ophthalmology with suspected diabetic retinopathy. The true referral rate will be compared between the intervention and control groups.

Time frame
within 6 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) Diagnosis Rate

Proportion of subjects diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy among all enrolled subjects will be compared between the intervention group and the control group.

Time frame
Within 6 months
2

Odds Ratio

Odds ratio between the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy and the application of the AI system among subjects referred to ophthalmology will be calculated.

Time frame
Within 6 months
3

Referral Rate

Proportion of subjects referred to ophthalmology for suspected diabetic retinopathy among all enrolled subjects will be compared between the intervention group and the control group.

Time frame
Within 6 months
4

Time to Diabetic Retinopathy Diagnosis

Time interval from the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus to confirmed diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy based on ophthalmologic evaluation among referred subjects will be compared between the intervention group and the control group.

Time frame
Within 6 months

Other outcomes

1

Interim Analysis

One interim analysis will be conducted when 50% of subjects have completed all study visits. The purpose of this analysis is to review the status of subject dropouts and the reasons for dropout in each group. This procedure will be conducted by a statistician who is independent of the study conduct.

Time frame
Within 6 months
