24-Hour IOP Telemetry in the Nonhuman Primate: Implant System Performance and Initial Characterization of IOP at Multiple Timescales

Abstract: The measured IOP was successfully measured continuously by using a new, fully implantable IOP telemetry system. IOP fluctuates as much as 10 mm Hg from day to day and hour to hour in unrestrained nonhuman primates, which indicates that snapshot IOP measurements may be inadequate to capture the true dynamic character of IOP. The distributions, magnitudes, and patterns of IOP are not reproducible from day to day within animals, but IOP tends to be slightly higher at night when IOP data are averaged across multip… Show more

“…We have found this to be true across a range of frequencies, which are present in the dynamic forces the eye experiences regularly during physiologic disturbances, such as ocular pulse, blinking, ocular movements, posture change, and eye rubbing. Recent studies on humans 34 and rhesus monkeys 35 reported data upon long-term monitoring of IOP showing frequent and quick IOP fluctuations. Based on our estimate using spectral analysis of the reported dynamic IOP curves obtained from rhesus monkeys, 35 the in vivo IOP could contain most of the frequencies tested in our study.…”

“…Where possible, we chose to maintain the old EG eyes at higher IOPs than the young EG eyes, so as to achieve a bias toward more rather than less deformation in the old EG eyes. Our IOP data suggest we achieved this bias, although measurements were made only weekly, whereas continuous telemetric IOP characterization 48 would have been necessary to most accurately quantify IOP insult.…”

“…In addition to the CLS, other non-invasive devices are currently being developed (14,15) . In 2011, an implantable telemetric pressure transducer system to continuously monitor IOP was tested in non-human primates and shown to provide accurate measurements (16) . For the moment, however, the extensive surgery required for its implantation precludes use in humans.…”
