Age (range) | Premature to newborn |
Eligibility criteria |
Inclusion criteria |
-Premature and infants hospitalized in the Neonatology Unit of the Robert Debré hospital and being under cardiac monitoring
-Presenting a retinopathy risk of prematurity or a risk of ocular abnormalities in the eyeground: chorio-retinal and/or papillary
-Written consent of parent. |

Phase | 3 |
Kind of study | Efficacy Bioequivalence Safety
|
Design | Controlled Randomised Blinded Double blind
|
Purpose of study |
Principal objective:
-To compare the percentage of mydriase of quality allowing the realization of the eyeground obtained by mydriasert versus recommended treatment(tropicamide and phenylephrine).
Secondary objectives:
-To compare between the two groups of treatment:
1/frequency of intervention of the nurse to treat the patient until obtaining the mydriase.
2/respect of the time designed to obtain a mydriase allowing the reading of the eyeground
3/calcul of the dosage of active drug received
4/local clinical tolerance in particular cardiac
5/adverse effects
6/stability of the mydriase defined by a mydriase of good quality maintained at the time of measurement in T+180mn. |
Primary outcomes |
-obtaining a premium mydriasis (success) |
Secondary outcomes |
-The frequency of intervention to treat the patient until obtaining mydriasis
-Time measured to have a satisfactory eyeground
-received theoretical doses (mg) of tropicamide and phenylephrine
-The local and systemic clinical tolerance (cardiac)
-Appearance of side effects
-Mydriasis stability |
Summary of study design, objectives, and ongoing research findings |
Equivalence, randomized and blinded study. Newborns requiring an eyeground examination are included. Primary objective is to compare the quality of the mydriasis obtained by Mydriasert versus the reference treatment(Phenylephrine and tropicamide). |
