“…Its superiority over the qualitative technique was shown [50,51] . Previous studies reported adverse reactions of intravenous fluorescent dye injections, even anaphylactic reactions with fatal outcomes [52,53] . However, a recent international multicenter study has shown intravenous administration of fluorescein to be safe for a confocal laser endomicroscopy of the gastrointestinal tract [54] .…”

Objective and quantitative intraoperative methods of bowel viability assessment are essential in gastrointestinal surgery. Exact determination of the borderline of the viable bowel with the help of an objective test could result in a decrease of postoperative ischemic complications. An accurate, reproducible and cost effective method is desirable in every operating theater dealing with abdominal operations. Numerous techniques assessing various parameters of intestinal viability are described by the studies. However, there is no consensus about their clinical use. To evaluate the available methods, a systematic search of the English literature was performed. Virtues and drawbacks of the techniques and possibilities of clinical application are reviewed. Valuable parameters related to postoperative intestinal anastomotic or stoma complications are analyzed. Important issues in the measurement and interpretation of bowel viability are discussed. To date, only a few methods are applicable in surgical practice.Further studies are needed to determine the limiting values of intestinal tissue oxygenation and flow indicative of ischemic complications and to standardize the methods.

“…[16][17][18][19][20][21] Unlike fluorescein angiography, OCT is a noninvasive procedure that is useful for evaluations that require multiple measurements of parameters, such as those associated with CME after cataract extraction. 19 Earlier studies report detection of patients with CME after cataract surgery by OCT, but not by clinical examination or fluorescein angiography. 22 At present, there are 5 available topical ophthalmic NSAID preparations: ketorolac tromethamine 0.5%; diclofenac sodium 0.1%, flurbiprofen, nepafenac 0.1%,0.3%, and bromfenac 0.09%, The current study evaluated the efficacy of prophylactic administration of Bromfenac 0.09% in addition to routine antibiotic and prednisolone drops on acute CME within the first 4 weeks after phacoemulsification cataract surgery.…”

PURPOSE:To evaluate the efficacy of prophylactic administration of the topical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) Bromfenac 0.09% on acute (within 4 weeks of surgery) cystoids macular edema (CME) and total macular volume (TMV) in patients having phacoemulsification cataract surgery. SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, shantiram general hospital, nandyal. METHODS: This open-label nonmasked randomized (random number assignment) study comprised 100 eyes. Exclusion criteria included hypersensitivity to the NSAID drug class, aspirin/NSAID-induced asthma, and pregnancy in the third trimester. Bromfenac 0.09%was administered starting 1 day before surgery and for 28 days after surgery for a total of 30 days. The outcome measure was macular swelling, which was quantified by the optical coherence tomography. RESULTS: At 1 month, there was a statistically significant difference in TMV between the control group (0.4420 mm3) and the Bromfenac 0.09%group (0.2392 mm3), with the Bromfenac 0.09%group having 45.8% less macular swelling (P Z.009). Multiple linear regression with backward selection indicated a 44.3% (P Z.013) and 46.1% (P Z.030) reduction in macular swelling in the Bromfenac 0.09% group at 1 week and 1 month, respectively. CONCLUSION: Used prophylactically after cataract surgery, Bromfenac 0.09% was efficacious in decreasing postoperative macular edema.

“…Several other studies [7][8][9][10][11][12][13] supports the use of anti-inflammatory compounds in cataract surgery. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a diagnostic tool that allows objective quantification of the spectrum of CME by directly measuring changes in the volume of the retina [14][15][16][17][18][19]. Unlike fluorescein angiography, OCT is a non-invasive procedure that is useful for evaluations that require multiple measurements of parameters, such as those associated with CME after cataract extraction [17].…”
