Data Sheet 1_Prospective descriptive pilot feasibility case series of low-pressure cataract surgery with the Zeiss Quatera 700 in glaucoma patients.pdf

Purpose<p>The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of low-pressure cataract surgery using the Zeiss Quatera 700 system in patients with glaucoma.</p>Patients and methods<p>This is a prospective, investigator-initiated case series of 10 eyes of 10 patients with glaucoma undergoing cataract surgery with the Quatera 700. The minimal intraocular pressure (IOP) settings (30 mmHg) were used for every step of the surgery.

The primary outcome was defined as the occurrence of any surgical complication. All other outcome variables were prospectively classified as secondary and exploratory endpoints. Secondary outcomes included intraoperative parameters like phaco energy usage, postoperative IOP spikes (>30 mmHg), and visual function [best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and visual field mean deviation (MD)].</p>Results<p>All surgeries were completed without intraoperative complications (0.0% event rate; exact 95% Clopper–Pearson CI: 0.0% to 30.8%).
