Validation of the eyeTelemed IOPvet indentation tonometer for use in dogs
VETERINARY OPHTHALMOLOGY(2024)
摘要
Objective: To assess the accuracy of canine intraocular pressure (IOP) estimates from the eyeTelemed IOPvet indentation tonometer. Animals Studied: Part 1 included 54 eyes from 28 Beagle dogs-23 ADAMTS10-mutants with open-angle glaucoma and 5 normals. Part 2 involved five normal canine ex vivo globes. ProcedurePart 1 (in vivo) compared IOPvet estimates in normal and glaucomatous dogs to Reichert Tono-Vera (R) Vet rebound tonometry. The three IOPvet estimates were green (normal; <20 mmHg, according to the manufacturer), yellow (elevated; 20-30 mmHg), and red (high; >30 mmHg). In Part 2 (ex vivo), the pressure inside freshly enucleated normal canine eyes was progressively increased from 5 to 80 mmHg and compared to IOPvet estimates. Descriptive statistics compared IOPvet estimates to rebound tonometry and direct manometry, with the threshold from normal to glaucoma set at 30 mmHg. Results: In Part 1 (in vivo), normal pressures (<= 30 mmHg) were mainly identified correctly as green or yellow-110 of 111 estimates, corresponding to a specificity of 99%. Only 16 of 125 affected estimates were correctly displayed in the >30-mmHg range; the remaining 109 showed <= 30 mmHg, corresponding to a sensitivity of 13%. In Part 2 (ex vivo), all normal pressures were correctly estimated with green, but 64 of 88 manometric IOPs >30 mmHg were falsely estimated as 20-30 mmHg. Conclusions: The IOPvet is inaccurate in estimating canine IOP with a low sensitivity at identifying dogs with IOP > 30 mmHg. Canine-specific instrument revision is required to correctly identify elevated (yellow = 20-30 mmHg) and high (red >30 mmHg) IOPs.
