NCT01625598

Brief Summary

The hypothesis is that computer detection of the severity of diabetic retinopathy including the presence of clinically significant macular edema is not inferior to the detection using a dilated eye examination by a Board-certified ophthalmologist.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Sensitivity of detecting moderate non proliferative diabetic retinopathy or more severe DR and/or significant macular edema on a person-specific basis.

    If the interval excludes differences of 10% or more (IDx worse than clinical examination), then the IDx system will be considered non-inferior to clinical examination by ophthalmologists. If IDx is non-inferior to clinical examination, a two-sided test of the null hypothesis that the difference in sensitivities is 0 will be conducted to determine if the IDX is superior to clinical examination. 24 McNemar's test for paired proportions will be used to test the difference in proportions.

    Recruitment over 4 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Specificity (true negatives divided by true negatives plus false positives) at detecting more than moderate non proliferative diabetic retinopathy and/or significant macular edema on a person-specific basis.

    Four months

  • Sensitivity on an eye-specific basis [Clinical examination only]

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

Persons with diabetes, eighteen years of age or older, who have been referred to an ophthalmologists for a dilated eye examination to detect diabetic retinopathy.

You may qualify if:

  • a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus
  • subject understands study and has signed informed consent
  • no history of any other retinal vascular disease, glaucoma, or other disease that may affect the appearance of the retina or optic disc (refractive error and ocular surface disease are allowed);
  • other than cataract surgery, no history of intraocular surgery, ocular laser treatments for any retinal disease, or ocular injections for diabetic macular edema or proliferative disease
  • no media opacity precluding good retinal photography
  • age 18 or older

You may not qualify if:

  • no diagnosis of diabetes mellitus
  • potential subject cannot understand study or informed consent
  • a history of retinal vascular disease other than due to diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, or other disease that may affect the appearance of the retina or optic disc
  • previous intraocular surgery other than cataract; previous laser to the retina; or previous intraocular injections for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy
  • a media opacity in either eye that is severe enough to preclude good retinal photography
