Description
| - Background and aim of the study: Limited data have been reported that characterize infective endocarditis (IE) in the Czech Republic. Hence, some local cases of IE were examined to provide a current profile of the disease in Central Europe. Methods: A descriptive case series of IE patients seen on all internal medicine services of a major teaching institution in the Czech Republic over an eight-year period was developed. Results: Prosthetic valves and rheumatic carditis were the underlying predisposing conditions in 18% and 17%, respectively, of all IE episodes. Staphylococcal species were the most common pathogens identified, and were present in 45% of IE episodes. In contrast, streptococcal species were recovered in only 14% of episodes. The proportion of culture-negative endocarditis cases was sizable (18%). The aortic valve was most commonly involved in IE episodes (47%), followed by the mitral valve (33%). The in-hospital mortality rate was 21%. Conclusion: Younger patients, the occurren
