Pathogenesis of Bacterial Endocarditis

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1963
SEVERAL ENIGMAS about the mechanism of valvular endocarditis still exist. Why such an entity prevails at all requires elucidation. The relation of vegetations on the valve to an underlying interstitial valvulitis and of the bacterial to the nonbacterial vegetation is still moot. Do the bacteria reach the valve via the interstitial capillary bed or as a

ANEMIA IN BACTERIAL ENDOCARDITIS

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1953
The frequent occurrence of anemia in bacterial endocarditis has not been sufficiently emphasized. Recognition of this association is particularly important in cases in which the use of antibiotic therapy for an undiagnosed febrile illness may have masked some of the usual symptoms and signs of the disease.

Prevention of Bacterial Endocarditis

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1977
Bacterial endocarditis is a preventable disease if physicians and susceptible patients cooperate in exercising diligent prophylaxis.

SUBACUTE BACTERIAL ENDOCARDITIS

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1951
To the Editor:— In your excellent editorial "Treatment of Subacute Bacterial Endocarditis" (March 10, 1951) certain factors are discussed which you consider the most important in obtaining cures in this disease. I feel that, in so doing, you have failed to mention two equally important factors: 1. The early treatment of subacute bacterial endocarditis

Prevention of bacterial endocarditis

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1997
A major review of the American Heart Association guidelines for endocarditis prophylaxis was published in 1997.

Prevention of bacterial endocarditis

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 1985
Antibiotic prophylaxis of endocarditis is very complex and does not allow simple wholesale recommendations. It is impossible to make recommendations for every eventuality. Antibiotic prophylaxis is indicated in patients at risk whenever surgery or procedures are performed on infected, colonized or contaminated tissues.
