Endophthalmitis Reduction with Intracameral Moxifloxacin Prophylaxis: Analysis of 600 000 Surgeries.

TL;DR: Routine IC moxifloxacin prophylaxis reduced the overall endophthalmitis rate by 3.5-fold (3-fold for M-SICS and nearly 6-foldFor phacoemulsification) and there was also a statistical benefit for eyes complicated by PCR, and IC antibiotic proplylaxis should be strongly considered for this high-risk population.

Endophthalmitis after Cataract Surgery in the United States: A Report from the Intelligent Research in Sight Registry, 2013-2017.

TL;DR: Big data from clinical registries like the IRIS Registry has great potential for evaluating rare conditions such as endophthalmitis, including developing benchmarks, longer-term time trend investigation, and comprehensive analysis of risk factors and prophylaxis.

Perioperative antibiotics for prevention of acute endophthalmitis after cataract surgery.

TL;DR: The heterogeneity of the study designs and modes of antibiotic delivery made it impossible to conduct a formal meta-analysis, but three studies found reduced risk of endophthalmitis when combining intracameral cefuroxime and topical levofloxacin.

Endophthalmitis reduction with intracameral moxifloxacin in eyes with and without surgical complications: Results from 2 million consecutive cataract surgeries.

TL;DR: The posterior capsule rupture (PCR) rates among staff and trainee cataract surgeons, and the postoperative endophthalmitis (POE) rates in uncomplicated and complicated eyes both with and without intracameral moxifloxacin prophylaxis (ICMP) were analyzed.

Prophylaxis of postoperative endophthalmitis following cataract surgery: Results of the ESCRS multicenter study and identification of risk factors

TL;DR: Use of intracameral cefuroxime at the end of surgery reduced the occurrence of postoperative endophthalmitis, and there was evidence that men were more predisposed to infection.

Role of External Bacterial Flora in the Pathogenesis of Acute Postoperative Endophthalmitis

TL;DR: Using techniques of molecular epidemiology, the authors demonstrate that an organism isolated from the vitreous was genetically indistinguishable from an isolate recovered from the patient's eyelid, conjunctiva, or nose in 14 (82%) of 17 cases of endophthalmitis.

TL;DR: The incidence of endophthalmitis associated with cataract extraction has increased over the last decade and coincides temporally with the development of sutureless clear corneal incisions.

Bacterial endophthalmitis prophylaxis for cataract surgery: an evidence-based update

TL;DR: Current literature most strongly supports the use of preoperative povidone-iodine antisepsis in cataract surgery, according to a systematic literature review and evidence rating.
