To assess the need for prolonged incubation of blood culture bottles beyond five days for the diagnosis of infectious endocarditis (IE), we conducted a retrospective cohort study of 6109 sets of two blood culture bottles involving 1211 patients admit

Bacterial infective endocarditis (IE) is rarely suspected in patients with a low C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration.To address the incidence, characteristics and outcome of left-sided valvular IE with low CRP concentration.This was a retrospectiv

Background Multimodality imaging is essential for infective endocarditis (IE) diagnosis. The aim of this work was to evaluate the agreement between transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and cardiac computed tomography (CT) findings in patients with

Diagnosis of prosthetic valve infective endocarditis (IE) is challenging because sensitivity of Duke Criteria is low, ranging from 52% to 70% [(1)][1]. Therefore, fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) was in
