Efficacy and safety of transdermal electrical stimulation in patients with nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.
Background: No effective treatment for NAION with strong evidence has been established till date. The aim of this investigator-led, prospective, non-randomized, open-label, uncontrolled multi-center exploratory clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transdermal electrical stimulation (TdES) using skin electrodes in patients with NAION.
Methods: Five patients with monocular NAION underwent TdES (10-ms biphasic pulses, 1.0 mA, 20 Hz, 30 min) of the affected eye six times at 2-week intervals. The primary endpoint was the logarithm of the mini-mum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity at 12 weeks compared with 0 weeks. The secondary endpoints were changes in the best-corrected logMAR visual acuity, Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity, and mean deviation (MD) of the Humphrey field analyzer (HFA) 10-2 and HFA Esterman test scores. Additionally, the safety of TdES was evaluated.
Results: LogMAR visual acuity improved by ≥ 0.1 in two eyes, and ETDRS visual acu-ity improved by ≥ 5 characters in one eye. The mean change in logMAR visual acuity from week 0 showed an increasing trend. The mean MD of HFA 10-2 showed no obvious change, while HFA Esterman score improved in four eyes. All patients completed the study according to the protocol, and no treatment-related adverse events were observed.
Conclusions: TdES treatment may have improved visual acuity and visual field in some patients. Further sham-controlled study in larger cohort is needed on its effectiveness.
