OculusGraphy: Pediatric and Adults Electroretinograms Database

Electroretinography (ERG) has great potential in visual health detection in early diagnosis and intervention. To date, optical coherence tomography and other diagnostic tests are mainly used. Clinically used ERG is an important diagnostic assessment for various retinal diseases, such as hereditary diseases (retinitis pigmentosa, choroideremia, cone dystrophy, etc), diabetic retinopathies, glaucoma, macular degeneration, toxic retinopathies etc. A database of five types of adult and pediatric biomedical electroretinography signals is presented in this study. In this study, the database is based on several protocols: Scotopic 2.0 ERG Response (53 pediatric signals, 23 adult signals), Maximum 2.0 ERG Response (80 pediatric signals, 42 adult signals), Photopic 2.0 ERG Response (74 pediatric signals, 32 adult signals), and Photopic 2.0 EGR Flicker Response (63 pediatric signals, 38 adult signals). 20 signals of Scotopic 2.0 ERG Oscillatory Potentials in addition to that. The tests were performed at the IRTC Eye Microsurgery Ekaterinburg Center. In this study, the EP-1000 Multifocal computerized electrophysiology workstation manufactured by Tomey GmbH was used. The aim of this study is to describe the existing database including the classification of signals and to determine the pediatric norms of the binocular program.

视网膜电图（Electroretinography，ERG）在视觉健康检测的早期诊断与干预中具有巨大潜力。至今，光学相干断层扫描（optical coherence tomography）及其他诊断检查仍为主要手段。临床应用的ERG是多种视网膜疾病的重要诊断评估工具，例如遗传性疾病（视网膜色素变性（retinitis pigmentosa）、无脉络膜症（choroideremia）、锥状细胞营养不良（cone dystrophy）等）、糖尿病视网膜病变（diabetic retinopathies）、青光眼（glaucoma）、黄斑变性（macular degeneration）、中毒性视网膜病变（toxic retinopathies）等。本研究提出了一个包含成人与儿童两类人群五种生物医学视网膜电图信号的数据库。该数据库基于多种协议构建：暗视2.0 ERG反应（Scotopic 2.0 ERG Response，53例儿童信号、23例成人信号）、最大2.0 ERG反应（Maximum 2.0 ERG Response，80例儿童信号、42例成人信号）、明视2.0 ERG反应（Photopic 2.0 ERG Response，74例儿童信号、32例成人信号）以及明视2.0 EGR闪烁反应（Photopic 2.0 EGR Flicker Response，63例儿童信号、38例成人信号）；此外还包含20例暗视2.0 ERG振荡电位信号（Scotopic 2.0 ERG Oscillatory Potentials）。这些检测在叶卡捷琳堡IRTC眼科显微外科中心（IRTC Eye Microsurgery Ekaterinburg Center）完成。本研究的目的是描述现有数据库（包括信号分类）并确定双眼程序的儿童参考标准。
