Traumatic Hyphema

Medical interventions for traumatic hyphema

“…This difference was reported as not significant. In Spoor 1980, the mean time to rebleed in three participants who experienced a secondary hemorrhage in the prednisone group was 2.3 days compared with 2.6 days in the four participants who rebled in the placebo group. Like the Rahmani study, this difference was not significant.…”

“…Rahmani 1999 observed no effect of initial hyphema severity on the proportion of participants with a secondary hemorrhage, but Spoor 1980 found that there was a lower proportion of secondary hemorrhages in participants with less severe initial hyphemas (2/38 (13%) versus 2/5 (40%) where severity was defined as blood filling one-third versus more than one-third of the anterior chamber).…”

“…VA outcomes between studies could not be combined because they were assessed at different follow-up times and participants were divided by cut points into different levels of VA. Spoor 1980 reported that 21 of 23 (91%) participants in the prednisone group achieved final VA between 20/20 and 20/50 compared with 18 of 20 (90%) participants in the placebo group (P value = 0.88). In Rahmani 1999, short-term VA was compared for participants in each treatment group.…”

“…Spoor 1980 reported that there was no instance of peripheral anterior synechiae formation in either group.…”
