要約 目的:緑内障に対する2%カルテオロール塩酸塩点眼液を持続性2%カルテオロール塩酸塩点眼液に切替えた後の患者の満足度の報告。対象と方法:2%カルテオロール塩酸塩点眼液による治療を持続性2%カルテオロール塩酸塩点眼液に切替えた緑内障患者36例36眼を対象にし,アンケート調査を行った。男性25例,女性11例で,平均年齢は61.3±12.6歳であった。原発開放隅角緑内障21例,続発緑内障8例,正常眼圧緑内障6例,発達緑内障1例である。結果:変更前後で眼圧には有意差がなかった。コンプライアンズは変更前の72%が89%に上昇し,59%の患者が持続性点眼液の使用を希望し,その90%が点眼回数の減少をその理由に挙げた。結論:緑内障に対する治療として,2%カルテオロール塩酸塩点眼液を持続性2%カルテオロール塩酸塩点眼液に切替えることにより,利便性とコンプライアンスの向上が期待できる。
Abstract. Purpose:To report patient satisfaction after switching to long-acting 2% carteolol ophthalmic solution. Cases and Method:This study was made on 36 eyes of 36 patients of glaucoma. The series comprised 25 males and 11 females. The age averaged 61.3±12.6 years. Primary open-angle glaucoma was present in 21 cases,secondary glaucoma in 8,normal-tension glaucoma in 6,and developmental glaucoma in one. After receiving 2% carteolol ophthalmic solution,treatment was switched to long-acting 2% carteolol ophthalmic solution. They were asked to respond by questionnaire regarding their satisfaction. Results:There was no difference in intraocular pressure after switching. Compliance increased from 72% to 89%. Fifty-nine per cent of patients hoped for further treatment with long-acting carteolol. Reduced frequency of instillation was mentioned as the reason by 90% of patients. Conclusion:Switching from conventional to long-acting 2% carteolol ophthalmic solution resulted in improved convenience and compliance in glaucoma patients.
