Optic disc assessment is an essential part of the neurological examination of acutely unwell patients. This study compares the PanOptic ophthalmoscope with the direct ophthalmoscope for accuracy of diagnosis and ease of use. Patient satisfaction was also compared for the two instruments. A single-masked prospective observational study was carried out. The authors showed that the PanOptic ophthalmoscope was more sensitive (p=0.03) and specific (p=0.03) than the direct ophthalmoscope. The PanOptic ophthalmoscope was preferred by both doctors (p=0.001) and patients (p=0.04) in terms of comfort and ease of use.
视盘评估是对急性不适患者进行神经学检查的重要组成部分。本研究比较了 PanOptic 检眼镜和直接检眼镜在诊断准确性和易用性方面的差异。还比较了两种仪器的患者满意度。这是一项单盲前瞻性观察研究。作者表明，PanOptic 检眼镜比直接检眼镜更敏感（p=0.03）和特异（p=0.03）。就舒适度和易用性而言，PanOptic 检眼镜更受医生（p=0.001）和患者（p=0.04）的青睐。
