Abstract:
PURPOSE:To compare 2 ultrasound (US) frequencies for phacoemulsification for moderate to hard cataract to determine a frequency that makes phacoemulsification safer and more efficacious. SETTING:Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, New Delhi, India. DESIGN:Randomized controlled trial. METHODS:Patients with grade 4.0 to 6.9 senile cataract were randomized to 2 groups. Group A had lower frequency (28 kHz) phacoemulsification, and Group B had higher frequency (42 kHz) phacoemulsification. The effective phacoemulsification time (EPT) and estimated fluid usage (EFU) were compared intraoperatively. The endothelial parameters were assessed over 1 year. RESULTS:Both groups comprised 80 patients. The groups were matched for age (P = .533), sex (P = .263), and nuclear grade (nuclear color, P = .496; nuclear opalescence, P = .622). Group B had significant reductions in EPT (P = .008) and EFU (P = .004) compared with Group A. Postoperatively, the endothelial cell density (ECD) was significantly higher in Group B at 1 month (P = .004), 3 months (P = .003), 6 months (P = .004), 9 months (P = .002), and 1 year (P = .003). The percentages of ECD loss were also significantly lower in Group B; the difference was statistically significant up to 1 year postoperatively even after adjustments for age, grade of cataract, EPT, and EFU. CONCLUSION:Higher frequency phacoemulsification was associated with a lower EPT and EFU as well as better endothelial preservation than a lower frequency.
