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

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1997
A major review of the American Heart Association guidelines for endocarditis prophylaxis was published in 1997. In view of changing perspectives on the population at risk for endocarditis and new information on the likelihood of particular procedures to place patients at risk, simplified guidelines have been developed.
