The Santa Cruz Diabetic Retinopathy Utilizing Artificial Intelligence Study

Overview

In this clinical trial, we plan to evaluate the usefulness of artificial intelligence (AI) software paired with a handheld retinal camera to compare diabetic retinopathy status in Bolivian patients as read by retina specialists versus the AI software.

Full Title of Study: “Comparative Analysis of Diabetic Retinopathy Images by Retina Specialists Versus EyeStar’s Artificial Intelligence Software of Images Captured by Pictor Plus Retinal Camera”

Study Type

  • Study Type: Observational
  • Study Design
    • Time Perspective: Prospective
  • Study Primary Completion Date: April 14, 2019

Interventions

  • Other: Picture of the retina with a handheld retinal camera
    • Patient with diabetes will have their undilated and dilated images taken, with the images being centered on the macula and on the optic disc.

Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • Number of subjects where the image readout by retina specialists match the readouts by EyeStar AI system for identifying diabetic eye disease
    • Time Frame: 3 months
    • To quantify image analysis performance of the EyeStar AI system paired with Pictor Plus cameras for the detection of referable Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), defined as severe non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), or diabetic macular edema (DME) against adjudicated reads of retinal images by retina specialists

Secondary Measures

  • Number of subjects with gradable images taken by the hand held camera
    • Time Frame: 3 months
    • Pictures taken by the handheld retinal camera will be graded by the retina specialists for the quality of image for readouts
  • Number of subjects with ocular diseases other than diabetic retinopathy between the readout by the EyeStar AI system and those by the retina specialists
    • Time Frame: 3 months
    • To assess the performance of the system in detection of other ocular diseases such as macular degeneration and glaucoma
