Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Neuroscience
  • Medical Devices

Background:

  • The full-field electroretinogram (ffERG) is crucial for assessing retinal function.
  • Standard electrodes like the Burian-Allen (BA) have limitations, including potential cross-contamination.
  • A new single-use, soft-contact lens electrode, the RM Electrode, has been developed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish age-specific ffERG reference ranges using the RM Electrode in healthy volunteers.
  • To compare the performance of the RM Electrode against the conventional BA electrode for ffERG recording.

Main Methods:

  • ffERG recordings were performed on 40 healthy volunteers following ISCEV standards and extended protocols.
  • Parameters including amplitude, implicit time, and recording stability (%CV) were analyzed.
  • Comparisons were made between the RM Electrode and the BA electrode.

Main Results:

  • Most ffERG parameters varied with age.
  • The RM Electrode showed significantly larger dark-adapted a-wave (18%) and light-adapted b-wave (20%) amplitudes compared to the BA electrode.
  • The RM Electrode demonstrated superior recording stability (12.3% %CV) versus the BA electrode (16.7% %CV).

Conclusions:

  • The RM Electrode provides ffERG results comparable or superior to the BA electrode.
  • Established reference ranges facilitate the adoption of this disposable, hygienic contact lens electrode.
  • The RM Electrode offers a safe and effective alternative for clinical ffERG testing.
