We employed a univariate multivariable binary logistic regression model.<h4>Results</h4>We used intraocular gas tamponades in 872 cases with PVR grade B or lower: air tamponade was used in 414 eyes and 458 eyes were treated with a type of fluorinated gas tamponade. There was no significant difference in the type of tamponade with regard to the re-detachment rate (95% CI -1.0% and 4.1%). Additionally, also in the subgroup of rhegmatogenous retinal detachments with inferior located retinal defects we found no significant difference between the two types of tamponade (p = 0.54 Fisher's exact). The multivariable model, which included tamponade, PVR grade, a retinal detachment involving the 6 o'clock position and age as covariates, also showed no significant effect of tamponade choice on treatment success (OR 0.5, 95% 0.2-1.0, p = 0.10).<h4>Conclusion</h4>We found no difference in treatment success with air tamponade versus fluorinated gas tamponades in the repair of primary retinal detachments, this also includes inferiorly located retinal tears and detachments."],"journal":["Acta ophthalmologica"],"pagination":["e1600-e1605"],"full_dataset_link":["https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC9790619"],"repository":["biostudies-literature"],"pubmed_title":["Air versus fluorinated gas tamponades in pars plana vitrectomy treatment for primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment."],"pmcid":["PMC9790619"],"pubmed_authors":["Govers BM","Lamers MPM","Klevering BJ","Keijser S"],"additional_accession":[]},"is_claimable":false,"name":"Air versus fluorinated gas tamponades in pars plana vitrectomy treatment for primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.","description":"<h4>Purpose</h4>To compare the treatment success of air with fluorinated gas (20% SF<sub>6</sub> or 14% C<sub>3</sub> F<sub>8</sub> ) tamponade in pars plana vitrectomy for primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.<h4>Methods</h4>A retrospective cohort study comprised of 1023 consecutive primary retinal detachment cases between 2014 and 2020.
