2017
Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Ziele der vorliegenden Untersuchung waren die Evaluation ophthalmologischer Nachsorgeuntersuchungen ehemaliger früh- und reifgeborener Kinder im Alter von 4 bis 10 Jahren und der Vergleich mit den deutschen Leitlinien. Methodik In der prospektiven Wiesbaden Prematurity Study (WPS) wurden 503 Kinder, davon 239 Frühgeborene (FG) mit Gestationsalter (GA) ≤ 32 Wochen und 264 Reifgeborene (RG) mit GA ≥ 37 Wochen (Kontrollgruppe) im Alter von 4 bis 10 Jahren inklusive Refraktionsmessung und orthoptischem Status untersucht. Anisometropie war definiert als Refraktionsunterschied von ≥ 1 dpt sphärischem Äquivalent. Die Eltern wurden zusätzlich gefragt, ob nach der Entlass…
Axial Length and Anterior Segment Alterations in Former Preterm Infants and Full-Term Neonates Analyzed With Scheimpflug Imaging.
2017
Purpose To compare the axial length and anterior segment alterations in preterm infants with and without retinopathy of prematurity with those of full-term infants. Methods The Wiesbaden Prematurity Study investigated 503 participants of former gestational age ≤32 weeks and gestational age ≥37 weeks now being aged 4 to 10 years. This study included 485 participants in the prospective controlled cross-sectional, hospital-based study with successful Pentacam Scheimpflug imaging. Anterior segment parameters, axial length measurements, and associated factors were analyzed. Results Corneal thickness did not differ between former preterm and full-term infants. Significant differences were found b…
Corneal Aberrations in Former Preterm Infants: Results From The Wiesbaden Prematurity Study
2017
Purpose To compare corneal aberrations in former preterm infants to that of full-term infants. Methods A prospective cross-sectional study was carried out measuring the corneal shape with Scheimpflug imaging in former preterm infants of gestational age (GA) ≤32 weeks and full-term infants with GA ≥37 weeks now being aged between 4 to 10 years. The main outcome measures were corneal aberrations including astigmatism (Zernike: Z2-2; Z22), coma (Z3-1; Z31), trefoil (Z3-3; Z33), spherical aberration (Z40) and root-mean square of higher-order aberrations (RMS HOA). Multivariable analysis was performed to assess independent associations of gestational age groups and of retinopathy of prematurity …
