Abstract

Purpose: To compare the clinical success of two popular drugs in glaucoma treatment. Materials and Methods: Data belonging to 71 eyes diagnosed as glaucoma of 38 patients, 21 women 17 men, were evaluated. These data retrospectively were obtained from hospital records. Those patients admitted to glaucoma clinic between 2002-2005 years were treated with latanoprost %0.005 or carteolol %2 monotherapy. Duration of drugs as alone and its efficacy on C/D ratio progression and initial intraocular pressure were evaluated, as classifying the patients according to having types of glaucoma, kinds of monodrugs admitted, age and sex. Results: 28, 16, 14, 9, 2, 2 of 71 eyes with glaucoma were diagnosed as normal pressure glaucoma, primary open angle, ocular hypertension, pseudoexfoliative, pigmentary, and closed angle glaucoma respectively. Latanoprost 0.005% to 23 eyes of 71, carteolol 2% to 48 were admitted topically. The ratio of drugs sufficiency when used alone for first 6 months and 12 months were 100%-73.9% for latanoprost group, 72.91%-52.08% for carteolol group were obtained. Although in both two groups, statistically significant low IOP was obtained, there was no statistically significant difference between two groups for C/D ratio progression during first year follow-up. Conclusion: The efficacy of latanoprost 0.005% and carteolol 2% in maintaining the level of their IOP control were found similar, but the duration and rate of target intraocular pressure with latanoprost 0.005% was superior to carteolol 2% when compared them by using monotherapy during first year follow-up.

Özet

Amaç: Glokom tedavisinde sık olarak kullanılan iki tedavi seçeneğinin klinik başarısını karşılaştırmak. Gereç ve Yöntem: Glokom biriminde 2002-2005 yılları arasında takip edilip verilerine ulaşılabilen hastalardan %0.005 latanoprost yada %2 carteolol ile tekli ilaç tedavisi uygulanan 21’i kadın toplam 38 hastanın 71 gözüne ait veriler geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Hastalar yaş, cinsiyet, glokom tipi ve tedavide kullanılan tekli ilaç türü açısından sınıflandırılarak, ilaçların başlangıç göz içi basıncına (GİB) ve C/D oranına olan etkileri ile tek başına kullanılma süreleri değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Toplam 71 gözün 28’inde normotansif glokom, 16’sında primer açık açılı glokom, 14’ünde oküler hipertansiyon, 9’unda psödoeksfoliatif glokom, 2’sinde pigmenter glokom, 2’sinde ise kapalı açılı glokom tanıları konulmuştu. Gözlerden 23’üne (%32.4) %0.005 latanoprost, 48’ine (%67.6) %2 carteolol damla tedavisi başlandı. İlk altı ve 12. ayda ilaçların tek başına yeterlilik oranları sırasıyla latanoprost grubunda %100-%73.91, carteolol grubunda %72.91-%52.08 idi. Her iki grupta da ilk bir yıllık takip sürecinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı oranda GİB düşüşü temin edilmişken, iki grup arasında C/D oranı değişimi açısından anlamlı bir farklılık söz konusu değildi. Sonuç: Tekli tedaviyle ulaşılabilen GİB kontrolünü idame ettirmede gerek %0.005 latanoprost gerekse %2 carteolol ilk bir yıllık takip sürecinde benzer olup, %0.005 latanoprostun hedef göz içi (GİB) basıncını elde etme ve sürdürme oranı %2 carteolole göre daha fazladır.
