Abstract
Purpose: To gauge the value of low-vision-specific function and activities of daily living measures (LVFAM) in the assessment of Patient Reported Outcomes (PRO) of Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP).
Study design: Prospective observation study.
Methods: The May-July 2023 Visual activities of daily living (ADL) Survey of the low-vision-specific function and activities of daily living measure (LVFAM) was conducted on 15 RP patients attending our Ophthalmology outpatient clinic. We used the better corrected visual acuity, and the better Mean Deviation (MD) values of the central 10 degrees of Humphrey's visual field as macular sensitivity, and examined the total scores after Rasch Analysis for each of the low-vision-specific function of Daily Living (LVFDL) and the low-vision-specific activities of Daily Living (LVADL) among LVFAM, as well as the relationship between the items.
Results: Age 26-78 (mean 60.8), 5 men and 10 women, corrected visual acuity of 0.01-1.0 (mean 0.45) in the better eye, macular sensitivity of 3.47-40.00 (mean 18.60) dB, mean 52.2 for LVFDL and 66.4 for LVADL. The correlations were positive for visual acuity and LVFDL and LVADL, and negative for macular sensitivity, LVFDL and LVADL. In addition, four items were scored 0 by at least 5 (33%) of the LVFDL respondents, and two items were scored 1 by at least 5 (33%) of the LVADL respondents, suggesting that the results differed by question items.
Conclusion: The LVFAM was useful not only for the total score but also for each question item in the development strategy of PROs in RP with no treatment.
期刊介绍:
The Japanese Journal of Ophthalmology (JJO) was inaugurated in 1957 as a quarterly journal published in English by the Ophthalmology Department of the University of Tokyo, with the aim of disseminating the achievements of Japanese ophthalmologists worldwide. JJO remains the only Japanese ophthalmology journal published in English. In 1997, the Japanese Ophthalmological Society assumed the responsibility for publishing the Japanese Journal of Ophthalmology as its official English-language publication.
Currently the journal is published bimonthly and accepts papers from authors worldwide. JJO has become an international interdisciplinary forum for the publication of basic science and clinical research papers.
