ABSTRACT
AIM:To investigate the clinical value of wide angle digital imaging system ( RetCam Ⅱ) for the screening of retinopathy of premature infants ( ROP) . ●METHODS: A total of 200 cases ( 400 eyes ) in preterm children were selected Jan. 2012 to Dec. 2015 in line with obstetric screening criteria using RetCamⅡROP screening children for binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy results as the gold standard, RetCamⅡ for screening value of ROP in premature children. ●RESULTS:The screening of 200 cases ( 400 eyes ) in premature infants, binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy were detected 63 eyes with ROP (15. 8%), 337 normal eyes, 42 eyes with ROP phase l, 14 eyes with phase ll, 7 eyes with phase lll, no one with ROP phase lV and ROP phaseⅤ. A total of a 64 eyes with ROP were screened by RetCam ll, which the misdiagnosis in 5 eyes, diagnostic level decreased in 6 eyes. The consistency of RetCam ll detection results with binocular indirect ocular fundus examination results was 0. 814, P ● CONCLUSION: RetCam Ⅱ in preterm children ROP screening has high clinical value.
