U.S., May 23 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06985030) titled 'Head Position Monitoring After Pars Planar Vitrectomy' on March 24.
Brief Summary: In ophthalmic surgical practice, particularly for treating retinal detachment and macular hole disorders, vitrectomy procedures are routinely performed to remove the vitreous body followed by the injection of tamponade agents such as gaseous compounds (e.g., C3F8 or SF6) or silicone oil. These tamponade materials function by creating internal pressure against the retinal surface to facilitate reattachment. A critical determinant of surgical success in these cases is postoperative head positioning (prone posturing), as improper alignment may compromise ...
