Contributors The following document and appendices represent the third edition of Practice Guidelines for Ocular Telehealth-Diabetic Retinopathy. These guidelines were developed by Diabetic Retinopathy Telehealth Working Group. This working group consisted a large number subject matter experts in clinical applications telehealth ophthalmology. editorial committee Mark B. Horton, OD, MD, who served as chair Christopher J.

Background: Screening for diabetic retinopathy is both effective and cost-effective, but rates of screening compliance remain suboptimal. As improves, new methods to deal with data may help reduce the human resource needs. Crowdsourcing has been used in many contexts harness distributed intelligence completion small tasks including image categorization. Objective: Our goal was develop validate a novel method fundus photograph grading. Methods: An interface photo classification developed...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Establish quality and diagnostic utility of mydriatic smartphone ophthalmoscopy (SO) fundus images compared to camera (FC) images. PATIENTS METHODS: In this prospective, cross-sectional study, 94 consecutive patients in an urban eye emergency department underwent SO FC imaging via one three study arms: medical student 1 (MS1), 2 (MS2), ophthalmology resident (OR). Images 188 eyes were graded for overall by two masked reviewers, observed critical findings dilated...
Purpose Population-based prevalence surveys are essential for decision-making on interventions to achieve trachoma elimination as a public health problem. This paper outlines the methodologies of Tropical Data, which supports work undertake those surveys.
Infection is an inevitable consequence of chronic urinary catheterization with associated problems recurrent catheter encrustation and blockage experienced by approximately 50% all long-term catheterized patients. In this work, we have exploited, for the first time, reported pathogen-induced elevation urine pH as a trigger "intelligent" antimicrobial release from novel hydrogel drug delivery systems 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate vinyl-functionalized nalidixic acid derivatives, developed...

Background:The introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine has raised significant ethical, economic, and scientific controversies.Introduction:Because an explicit goal AI is to perform processes previously reserved for human clinicians other health care personnel, there justified concern about the impact on patient safety, efficacy, equity, liability.Discussion:Systems computer-assisted fully automated detection, triage, diagnosis diabetic retinopathy (DR) from retinal images...
<h3>Importance</h3> Survivors of Ebola virus disease (EVD) may experience ocular sequelae. Comparison with antibody-negative individuals from the local population is required to characterize disease. <h3>Objective</h3> To assess features ophthalmic specific EVD. <h3>Design, Setting, and Participants</h3> This baseline cross-sectional analysis survivors EVD their close contacts was conducted within PREVAIL III, a 5-year, longitudinal cohort study. Participants who enrolled at John F. Kennedy...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To determine whether tele-ophthalmology screening for proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) can be cost-saving. PATIENTS METHODS: Adults with diabetes presenting routine medical care underwent non-mydriatic fundus photography remote grading. Direct costs were estimated using the Medicare fee schedule in base case, Medicaid and commercial insurance rates used low high values, respectively. One-way probabilistic sensitivity analyses performed. RESULTS: Of 99...
Ready-made spectacles (RMS) have advantages; however, visual performance and satisfaction has not been evaluated.A 1-month, double-masked, randomized clinical trial comparing planned continued use of RMS to Custom Spectacles (CS) in adults aged 18-45 years with > or =1 diopter (D) uncorrected refractive error (URE).A total 373 400 participants (93%) completed; mean age was 30 +/- 9 years, 58% were female.
