1 Patient Pathway: OPHTHALMOLOGY Evidence table covering: CATARACT Author Year Study type Population Summary of Paper Comments SIGN 2001 Evidence based Guideline Royal College of Ophthalmolog ists Rose K; Waterman H; Toon L; McLeod D; Tullo A 2001 Evidence based Guideline Scotland UK 1999 RCT N=49 patients UK Elliot DB 1999 General Review & opinion Muthucumara na DJ; Rimmer TJ Gaskell, A.; McLaughlin A.; Young E.; McCristal K.; England 2000 Cohort study N=288 patients (318 eyes) UK 2001 Cohort study Scotland N=169 patients N= 45 optometrist Day Case Cataract Surgery Provides recommendations in planning day case cataract surgery: benefits and risks, pre and post operative assessment and anaesthesia. Also includes information for patients. Cataract Surgery Provides specific details of surgical practice: clinical aspects of cataract surgery (including investigations needed, referral, cataract surgery in diabetic patients); Biometry; day-case or in-patient surgery, Anaesthesia; outcome of cataract surgery, management of posterior capsular opacification, protocol for hospital activity, training for cataract surgery. Also provides information for patients. Aim: to compare the management of patients with cataract referred to a peripheral ophthalmic clinic, where the pre-operative assessment is done by a ophthalmic nurse, with pre-operative assessment done at the main hospital Conclusions: Nurse led pre-operative assessment of patients with cataract at a peripheral ophthalmic clinic is safe, cost-effective and is preferred by patients. This paper gives an overview on the referral and management of cataracts by optometrist. It provides advice on referrals stating that they should be done taking into account the ability of the patient to function in their desired lifestyle and not just their visual acuity. Aim: to determine the outcome of discharge on the first day following cataract surgery and the feedback from patient s optometrists. Conclusions: Patients without complications can be discharged to the care of their optometrist on the first day following cataract surgery. Good communication between hospital and the optometrist is needed. Aim: to determine the feasibility of the direct optometrist referral and combined assessment with same day cataract surgery. Methods: 1-Referral of the optometrist 2-A nurse undertakes a telephone assessment (medical, social and ophthalmic history) 3- Assessment at one day clinic Evidence based recommendations. Grading of the evidence provided. References stated. Developed by a multidisciplinary team. See appendix Cataract 1A, 1B, 1C Evidence based recommendations. Grading of the evidence provided.
