Endophthalmitis reduction with intracameral
moxifloxacin in eyes with and without surgical complications: Results from 2
million consecutive cataract surgeries
All cataract surgeries (2 062 643) performed during the 8-year
period from 2011 to 2018 at the 10 regional Aravind Eye Hospitals were included
in the analysis. With CMP, the overall POE rate declined from 692 (0.07%) of 993
009 eyes to 185 (0.02%) of 1 069 634 eyes (P < 0.001) This was independently
significant for phacoemulsification and for M-SICS (P < 0.001) The overall
PCR rate was 28 352 (062 643 eyes, and it was statistically higher for trainees
irrespective of surgical method |( P < 0.001 . Both staff and trainee
surgeons had higher PCR rates with phacoemulsification than with M-SICS (P <
0I) Absent ICMP, PCR increased the overall POE rate by more than 7-fold to63
(0.43%) of 14 505 eyes. ICMP reduced the POE rate after PCR to 25 (0.18%) of 13
847 eyes (P Z .002). This ICMP benefit was separately significant for both
M-SICS (0.54% vs 0.26%, PZ.01) and phacoemulsification (0.29% vs 0.06%, PZ.005).
The POE rate was especially high after secondary IOL implantation (0.90% without
ICMP vs 0.34% with ICMP, PZ 10).axis antibiotic.
AAO Study:
Endophthalmitis reduction with intracameral
moxifloxacin prophyiaxis
Overall, 302 815 eyes did not receive IC moxifloxacin and 314
638 eyes did, and there was a significant decline in the endophthalmitis rate,
from 0.07% (214/302 815) to 0.02% (64/314 638) (P < 0.001) , with
moxifloxacin. For the 194 252 phacoemulsification eyes, the endophthalmitis rate
was 0.07% (75/104 894) without IC moxifloxacin prophylaxis, compared with 0.01%
(11/89 358) with moxifloxacin (P < 0.001) . For the 414 657 M-SICS eyes, the
endophthalmitis rate was 0.07% (135/192 149) without IC moxifloxacin
prophylaxis, compared with 0.02% (52/222 508) with moxifloxacin P < 0.001 ).
Approximately half of the 8479 eyes that had PCR received IC moxifloxacin, and
half did not. Without IC moxifloxacin, PCR increased the endophthalmitis rate
early 7-fold to 0.48% (20/4186); IC moxifloxacin reduced the endophthalmitis
rate with PCR to 0.21% (9/4293) (P1% 0.034). No adverse events were due to IC
moxifloxacin.
