Noninvasive intraocular pressure monitoring: current insights
Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide and intraocular pressure (IOP) is currently its only modifiable risk factor. Peak IOP has for a long time been considered as a major contributor to glaucoma progression, but its effects may depend not only on its magnitude, but also on its time course. The IOP is nowadays considered to be a dynamic parameter with a circadian rhythm and...
متن کاملNoninvasive 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring: current status.
Noninvasive intermittent blood pressure monitoring was first developed 30 years ago.' It is now evolving from its former role as a somewhat esoteric research tool to becoming a clinically useful procedure for the evaluation ofhypertensive patients. In this review we outline its historical development, compare noninvasive 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring with the other available meth...
متن کاملNoninvasive blood pressure monitoring.
For more 20 years, noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) monitors have been widely used in operating rooms and critical care units to closely monitor blood pressure in patients of all ages. Despite the widespread use of automated blood pressure monitors, clinicians continue to deliberate over the accuracy and reliability of automated NIBP devices compared to other methods of blood pressure determin...
متن کاملNoninvasive intraocular pressure measurements in mice by pneumotonometry.
PURPOSE To develop a reliable, noninvasive, continuous, and easily implemented system for measuring intraocular pressure (IOP) in mice. METHODS Pneumotonometry was adapted for measurement of mouse IOP. Measurements were compared with those obtained with the servo-null micropipette system (SNMS) and with direct anterior chamber cannulation. Heart rate was monitored by the precordial pulse, EKG...
متن کاملNoninvasive measurement of rodent intraocular pressure with a rebound tonometer.
PURPOSE The present study evaluated the applicability of a rebound tonometer in measuring intraocular pressure (IOP) in rats and mice. METHODS The accuracy of the TonoLab rebound tonometer was determined in cannulated mouse and rat eyes. IOP was manipulated by changing reservoir height, and tonometer pressure readings were recorded by an independent observer. IOP values were recorded in consc...
