Study acronym: RANI-VH
Completed Phase 4
View on ClinicalTrials.gov →
Summary
This prospective interventional cohort study evaluates the outcomes of intravitreal ranibizumab injection in patients with diabetic vitreous hemorrhage secondary to proliferative diabetic retinopathy. The study aims to assess the effectiveness of ranibizumab in improving visual acuity, promoting vitreous hemorrhage clearance, reducing the need for pars plana vitrectomy, and evaluating treatment-related safety. Eligible adult patients with diabetic vitreous hemorrhage will receive intravitreal ranibizumab according to the study protocol and will be followed for 3 to 6 months with serial ophthalmic examinations. Outcome measures include changes in best-corrected visual acuity, vitreous hemorrhage severity, treatment-related complications, and the proportion of patients requiring vitrectomy. Panretinal photocoagulation may be performed when adequate retinal visualization is achieved.
