Abstract

Purpose: The waveform score (WS) indicates the reliability of each intraocular pressure (lOP) measurement signal performed with the Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA, Reichert). We aimed to assess i) the range of waveform score in IOP measurements with ORA in healthy subjects and to ii) identify a cut-off WS value under which an ORA measurement should be discarded.

Methods: Prospective study including three ORA IOP measurements performed in the right eye of 80 healthy normal subjects. The different WS were recorded and the highest WS of the three measurements was analysed. ANOVA test was used to assess variance in repeated measurements.

Results: Mean age of 80 subjects was 46.7+/-15.6 years. Mean WS of the first IOP measurement was 4.8+/-2.0 and 4.8+/-1.7 and 5.0+/-1.9 respectively for the second and third measurements (p= 0.74). Mean WS of the analysed 240 signals (3 measurements per eye) was 4.9+/-1.9 (range: 1.2-9.5). The mean value of all the highest values per eye was 6.2+/-1.8 (range: 2.9 -9.5 and was significantly higher than the mean WS of the 240 signals together (p <0.001). The 10th percentile of all the best values was 3.7 and the 75th percentile 7.5.

Conclusion: ORA measurements with WS <3.7 should be discarded in healthy normal subjects. As much as that the corresponding quality of the waveform ORA scan is satisfying, one single measurement with a WS >7.5 could be considered as sufficient. If this score cannot be reached after three consecutive measurements, the signal with the highest WS should be selected.

健康受试者眼反应分析仪(ora)波形评分范围。
目的:波形评分(WS)表示用眼反应分析仪(ORA, Reichert)测量的每个眼压(lOP)测量信号的可靠性。我们的目的是评估i)健康受试者使用ORA测量IOP时波形评分的范围,以及ii)确定一个截止WS值,在此值下应放弃ORA测量。方法:对80例健康正常人右眼进行3次ORA眼压测量,进行前瞻性研究。记录了不同的WS,并分析了三次测量中最高的WS。采用方差分析(ANOVA)评估重复测量的方差。结果:80例患者平均年龄46.7±15.6岁。第一次IOP测量的平均WS为4.8+/-2.0,第二次和第三次测量的平均WS分别为4.8+/-1.7和5.0+/-1.9 (p= 0.74)。分析的240个信号(每只眼3次测量)的平均WS为4.9+/-1.9(范围:1.2-9.5)。每只眼所有最高值的平均值为6.2+/-1.8(范围:2.9 -9.5),显著高于240个信号加起来的平均WS (p)。结论:WS 7.5的ORA测量可以被认为是足够的。如果连续测量三次仍不能达到该分数,则应选择WS最高的信号。
