Abstrakt: | Purpose: To determine the efficacy, safety, and surgical outcomes of trabecular microbypass stent (iStent) surgery performed by resident trainees and attending surgeons. Setting: Wills Eye Hospital, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Design: Retrospective case series. Methods: Records of all patients who had microbypass stent surgery by a resident at Wills Eye Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. The attending-performed group included any patient who had a microbypass stent implanted by an attending surgeon on the same day a resident case was performed. Results: Between 2016 and 2018, 31 microbypass stents were implanted by a resident supervised by an attending and 93 microbypass stents were implanted by an attending surgeon on the day a resident case was performed. The mean follow-up was 16.2 months ± 17.9 (SD). The mean intraocular pressure (IOP) decreased from 16.0 ± 4.6 mm Hg at baseline to 14.0 ± 3.1 mm Hg at most recent follow-up visit in the resident group (P = .02) and from 17.5 ± 4.8 mm Hg to 15.1 ± 4.3 mm Hg, respectively, in the attending group (P < .001). The final mean IOP and mean number of hypotensive medications were similar between the 2 groups (P = .83 and P = .12, respectively). Self-resolving hyphema occurred in 1 resident case and 2 attending cases. The resident group had 1 case of iridodialysis, which did not require additional surgery. One eye in the attending group ultimately required a trabeculectomy. Conclusion: Microbypass stent implantation by resident trainees with attending supervision had similar efficacy and safety as surgery performed by attending surgeons.
