Efficacy and safety of sodium bromfenac eye drops in the treatment of postoperative inflammation in cataract surgery: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis

BACKGROUND: A cataract is a degenerative change in the optical quality of the lens caused by protein denaturation. Modern medicine is mainly based on surgical treatment. Cataract surgery is often accompanied by severe inflammation, and glucocorticoid therapy has many adverse reactions and side effects. The non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug sodium bromfenac not only has good anti-inflammatory, analgesic and anti-allergic effects, but also does not produce side effects caused by hormone drugs. Clinical studies have shown that sodium bromfenac eye drops have a good curative effect in treating postoperative inflammation of cataract, with low recurrence rate and certain therapeutic advantages, but lack of evidence-based medicine evidence. The purpose of this study is to systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of sodium bromfenac eye drops in the treatment of postoperative inflammation of cataracts. METHODS: Use computer to search English and Chinese databases, such as PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, Weipu, China Biomedical Database, and Chinese Clinical Trial Registry for randomized controlled trials on the treatment of postoperative postoperative inflammation in cataract surgery with sodium bromfenac eye drops from the establishment of the database to September 2020, and data extraction and literature quality evaluation were conducted independently by two researchers, and Meta analysis was conducted on the included literature using RevMan5.3 software. RESULTS: In this study, the efficacy and safety of sodium bromfenac eye drops in the treatment of postoperative inflammation of cataract surgery were evaluated by the effective rate, symptom score, adverse reactions, incidence, recurrence rate, etc. CONCLUSION: This study will provide reliable evidence-based evidence for the clinical application of bromofenac sodium eye drops in the treatment of postoperative inflammation of cataract.
