What this trial studies

This study aims to establish a nationwide registry to collect and analyze intraoperative data from cataract surgeries performed with the Centurion phacoemulsifier. It will focus on parameters such as ultrasound time, energy delivered, and total surgery duration, among others. The goal is to assess the impact of technological advances on surgical efficiency and patient outcomes. Data will be retrospectively analyzed from at least 100,000 procedures across France, providing valuable insights into the effectiveness of different surgical settings.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are patients undergoing cataract surgery with the Centurion phacoemulsifier.

Not a fit: Patients with complicated surgeries or those whose centers oppose data collection may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this registry could lead to improved cataract surgery techniques and better patient outcomes through optimized use of phacoemulsification technology.

How similar studies have performed: While there is limited data on similar registries, the approach of collecting large-scale intraoperative data is promising and could provide valuable insights into surgical practices.
