Methods Two novices who underwent focused training and one expert in ocular ultrasound independently acquired images and measured ONSD and ODE on the same children, 0-18 years with ventricular shunts, blinded to each other's images and measurements. Patient tolerance, image quality, and time-to-complete exams were recorded. Images meeting a priori defined quality metrics were included. Mixed models and bootstrap analysis were used to obtain inter-rater reliability and 95% confidence intervals. Results Eighty-one children were enrolled from August 2016 to July 2017, with mean age 9.6 years (SD 5.25, range 5 months-17.7 years). High-quality images (>= 4 on 7-point quality Likert scale) were obtained in 83% of ONSD assessments and 95% of ODE assessments. The ICCONSD was 0.82 (95% CI 0.76-0.91) for right eyes and 0.73 (95% CI 0.69-0.85) for left, while ICCODE was 0.81 (95% CI 0.75-0.89) for right eyes and 0.85 (95% CI 0.79-0.91) for left. Mean study duration (both eyes) was 2:52 min (SD 54 s). Conclusion Clinicians generated high-quality ocular ultrasound images with excellent interrater reliability when acquiring and measuring images of ONSD and ODE in children with ventricular shunts. 收起
