About this trial

The goal of this proposal is to develop novel HH-SECTR technology for visualizing and quantifying diagnostic disease features in prematurely born infant retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) patients that lead to more informed clinical decision making. Providing depth-resolved vascular information has not been adequately investigated for its diagnostic potential. Furthermore, we seek to identify disease features not currently accessible by standard examination methods to better inform clinical decisions.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Preterm male and female infants born at 24-34 weeks gestational age and weighing <1500g at birth

Disqualifiers

Infants surgically treated for ROP

Infants with significant health concern that would preclude noninvasive retinal imaging as noted by the primary inpatient team

Trial population

Preterm male and female infants born at 24-34 weeks gestational age and weighing \<1500g at birth.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Retinal imaging in pediatric ROP patients

Real-time noninvasive optical imaging of the retina will be performed out to the ora serrata and ROP diagnostic markers will be evaluated in post-processing and compared against clinical examination

Time frame
Weekly imaging until 45 weeks, cessation of ROP screening, or first therapeutic intervention, whichever comes first
