A study to determine whether Keeler Pulsair tonometry is a feasible alternative to tonometry under general anaesthesia in children was undertaken. We recruited 53 children aged from 6 months to 9 years old. Readings were obtainable from 78% and a complete set of four readings from each eye was obtained from 45% of the group in an out-patient setting. Averaged Pulsair measurements agreed well with Perkins applanation tonometry values under general anaesthesia. Techniques to improve compliance are discussed. In conclusion, the Pulsair tonometer is a viable method for obtaining estimates of intraocular pressure in children in this age-group.
开展了一项研究,以确定基勒空气脉冲眼压计是否是儿童全身麻醉下眼压测量的可行替代方法。我们招募了53名年龄在6个月至9岁之间的儿童。在门诊环境中,78%的儿童可获得眼压读数,45%的儿童每只眼睛可获得完整的四次读数。空气脉冲测量的平均值与全身麻醉下的珀金氏压平眼压计测量值吻合良好。讨论了提高依从性的技术。总之,空气脉冲眼压计是获取该年龄组儿童眼压估计值的可行方法。
