lidocaine and Endophthalmitis

lidocaine has been researched along with Endophthalmitis in 6 studies

Lidocaine: A local anesthetic and cardiac depressant used as an antiarrhythmia agent. Its actions are more intense and its effects more prolonged than those of PROCAINE but its duration of action is shorter than that of BUPIVACAINE or PRILOCAINE.
lidocaine : The monocarboxylic acid amide resulting from the formal condensation of N,N-diethylglycine with 2,6-dimethylaniline.

Endophthalmitis: Suppurative inflammation of the tissues of the internal structures of the eye frequently associated with an infection.
