Infective Endocarditis (IE)
IE is an infection of the endothelial lining of the
heart valves, mitral or tricuspid chorda tendinea,
valve annulus, and aortic root.
Pre-existing heart disease is found in 2/3 of the
cases of left-sided IE.
1/3 patients have normal or clinically
unrecognized valve disease.

Epidemiology
Who is at high risk for developing endocarditis?
People with prosthetic heart valves, previous
incidents of endocarditis, complex congenital heart
disease, IVDU, and surgically devised systemic
pulmonary shunts.
What patients have a moderate risk for
developing endocarditis?
Acquired valvular dysfunction, HCOM, and
uncorrected congenital defects.
Zevitz, M. Pearls of Wisdom Board Review
Epidemiology
Patient Populations

MVP (7-30% of NVE not related to IVDU or
nosocomial infection)
Risk is mostly in pts with thickened valve leaflets (>5mm) and
MR murmur.


MVP + murmur 52/100,000 vs. no murmur 4.6/100,000 personyr
RHD
MV > AV

CHD (10-20% young adults, 9% older adults)
PDA, VSD, and biscupid aortic valve most common

HIV
Not significant risk for IE, unless IVDU
Braunwald 8th Edition
Epidemiology
Patient Populations

IVDU (2-5%/patient-year)
TV>MV>AV=multiple sites
TV IE is associated with pleuritic chest pain, SOB,
cough, and hemoptysis. CXR may have septic
pulmonary emboli.
IVDU is a risk factor for recurrent NVE
HIV, 27 to 73% of IVDU with IE, risk and mortality
is inversely related to CD4 counts.
Braunwald 8th Edition
Epidemiology
Patient Populations

Prosthetic Valve Endocarditis (PVE)
10 to 30% of all IE in developed countries
“Early” PVE, symptoms within 60 days, occurs at
greater frequency than “late”
0-12 months, PVE in mechanical > bioprosthetic
>12 months, PVE bioprosthetic > mechanical
By 5 years, PVE bioprosthetic = mechanical
Braunwald 8th Edition
Epidemiology
Patient Populations

Health care-associated
Nosocomial and community-acquired as a
consequence of indwelling devices
HD is independently associated with S. aureus.
Catheter-associated S. aureus bacteremia is the
predominant risk factor for IE in this group.
Treat as presumed IE, if persistent fever or
bacteremia for 4 days after catheter removed.
Braunwald 8th Edition
Distribution of Types of IE
Isolated AV IE is observed in 55-60% of cases.
Isolated MV IE occurs in 25-30% of cases.
IE of both valves occurs in 15% of cases.
Prosthetic valve IE constitutes 10-25% of all cases of IE.

Prosthetic valve IE is more common with prosthetic AV, multiple
valves, and after replacement of an infected native valve

Chlamydia psittaci
A nosocomial cluster of cases postoperatively
may be caused by what organisms?

Legionella or Mycobacterium species
What organism, once accounted for 25% of
cases, now only 1-2% of cases?

Neisseria gonorrhoeae
Zevitz, M. Pearls of Wisdom Board Review
Pathophysiology
It is hypothesized that platelet-fibrin deposition occurs
spontaneously on abnormal valves and at sites of cardiac
endothelium injury or inflammation and that these deposits are
called nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE).
NBTE are the sites at which microorganisms adhere during
bacteremia to initiate IE.
2 mechanisms in the formation of NBTE:


Endothelial injury
Hypercoagulable state.
3 hemodynamic circumstances that may initiating NBTE:

(1) a high-velocity jet striking endothelium; (2) flow from a high- to a lowpressure chamber; and (3) flow across a narrow orifice at high velocity.
Braunwald 8th Edition
Pathophysiology
Bacteremia converts NBTE to IE.
Bacteremia rates are highest for trauma of
the oral mucosa (especially gingiva), than
GU, and GI tract.
Braunwald 8th Edition

Clinical Features
Destructive effects of intracardiac infection
Embolization of septic fragments of vegetations
to distant sites causing infarction/infection
Hematogenous seeding of remote sites
An antibody response with subsequent tissue
injury caused by deposition of preformed
immune complexes or antibody-complement
interaction with antigens deposited in tissues.

Subaortic Complications of
AV Endocarditis
“TEE Recognition of Subaortic Complicatons in AV
endocarditis”
Karalis DG, et al. (Circulation 1992; 86: 353 – 362).
May 1988 – August 1991, 55 consecutive patients
44% (N = 24) had subaortic complications.
Secondary involvement of the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa
(MAIVF) and the anterior mitral leaflet (AML)
Direct extension of infection and/or less commonly the infected AI
jet striking the subaortic structures
Abscess, aneurysm, perforation

Secondary infections of the subaortic structures
may be more common than appreciated.
The MAIVF and AML should be investigated in
all patients with AV endocarditis.
Thickening of the posterior aortic root or AML
with an eccentric MR color jet should alert to
possible subaortic complications.

Prevention/Guidelines
Wilson, et al. Circulation. 2007; 115
Rationale
IE prophylaxis regimen has been evolving for
the past 50 years.
Basis for recommendations and quality of
evidence limited to expert opinion, small trails
[Class IIb, LOE C]
Several assumptions have led to development of
abx prophylaxis in humans, and these
assumptions have been recently questioned
Wilson, et al. Circulation. 2007; 115
Rationale
AHA/ACC guidelines have become overly
complicated and wrought with ambiguities,
making interpretation difficult for practitioners.
Potential consequences of changes include:
altering established practice, decreasing pts
eligible for prophylaxis, decreasing malpractice
suits and spurring more trials
Wilson, et al. Circulation. 2007; 115
Evidence
(1) Frequency, nature, magnitude, and duration of
bacteremia associated with dental procedures
(2) Impact of dental disease, oral hygiene, and type of
dental procedure on bacteremia
(3) Impact of antibiotic prophylaxis on bacteremia from a
dental procedure
(4) The exposure over time of frequently occurring
bacteremia from routine daily activities compared with
bacteremia from various dental procedures.
Wilson, et al. Circulation. 2007; 115
Evidence
Dental procedures


Transient bacteremia is common with manipulation of
the teeth and periodontal tissues.
Wide variation in reported frequencies of bacteremia
in patients resulting from dental procedures:
Tooth extraction (10% to 100%),
Periodontal surgery (36% to 88%),
Teeth cleaning (up to 40%)
Endodontic procedures (up to 20%)
Wilson, et al. Circulation. 2007; 115
Evidence
Routine daily activities

Unrelated to a dental procedure
Tooth brushing and flossing (20% to 68%)
Use of wooden toothpicks (20% to 40%)
Use of water irrigation devices (7% to 50%)
Chewing food (7% to 51%)
Wilson, et al. Circulation. 2007; 115
Evidence
Few published studies exist on the magnitude of
bacteremia after a dental procedure or from
routine daily activities, and most of the published
data used older, often unreliable microbiological
methodology.
There are no published data that demonstrate
that a greater magnitude of bacteremia,
compared with a lower magnitude, is more likely
to cause IE in humans.
Wilson, et al. Circulation. 2007; 115
Evidence
The magnitude of bacteremia resulting from a
dental procedure is relatively low, similar to that
resulting from routine daily activities, and is less
than that used to cause experimental IE in
animal.
Although the infective dose required to cause IE
in humans is unknown, the number of
microorganisms present in blood after a dental
procedure or associated with daily activities is
low.
Wilson, et al. Circulation. 2007; 115
Dental Recommendations
The vast majority of cases of IE caused by oral microflora most likely
result from random bacteremias caused by routine daily activities,
such as chewing food, tooth brushing, flossing, use of toothpicks,
use of water irrigation devices, and other activities. The presence of
dental disease may increase the risk of bacteremia associated with
these routine activities.
There should be a shift in emphasis away from a focus on a dental
procedure and antibiotic prophylaxis toward a greater emphasis on
improved access to dental care and oral health in patients with
underlying cardiac conditions associated with the highest risk of
adverse outcome from IE and those conditions that predispose to
the acquisition of IE
Wilson, et al. Circulation. 2007; 115
GI/GU Recomendations
The possible association between GI or GU tract
procedures and IE has not been studied as
extensively as the possible association with
dental procedures.
The administration of prophylactic antibiotics
solely to prevent endocarditis is not
recommended for patients who undergo GI or
GU procedures, including EGD or colonoscopy.

Purulent pericarditis is fatal if untreated, 40% mortality.
TB Pericarditis:



Effusive-contrictive (30-50%)
85% mortality if left untreated.

Bacterial Pericarditis
Management:




First emperic antibiotic therapy (anti-staph
and aminoglycoside), then tailor therapy.
Open surgical drainage is preferred.
Rinsing pericardium with antibiotics,
urokinase/ streptokinase may help clear
infection.
Pericardiotomy is recommended for recurrent
effusions.

Echo Findings of Constriction
1) Increased pericardial thickness and
occasionally calcification

TEE measurement correlates with CT
2) Septal shudder/bounce
3) RV/LV inflow – increased E velocity

Due to early rapid diastolic filling
4) Tissue doppler – prominent E velocity

Major difference between constriction and restriction
5) Other: IV/hepatic v. dilation, biatrial
enlargement

The Prospective Evaluation of Pacemaker Lead
Endocarditis study is a multicenter, prospective survey of
the incidence and risk factors of infectious complications
after implantation of pacemakers and cardioverterdefibrillators.
January 1 - December 31, 2000, 6319 consecutive
recipients of implantable systems were enrolled at 44
medical centers and followed up for 12 months.
Infections developed over 12 months in 42 patients,
incidence of 0.68/100 patients.
Circulation, Sept. 2007, 116: 1349-1355
Conclusions
The epidemiology of IE has changed in developed
countries.
TEE has a 95% sensitivity in detecting vegetations and
is also key in finding complications of vegetations.
Moderate to severe heart failure and vegetation length
are important indications for surgery.
Antibiotic prophylaxis regiman for IE was updated in
2007.
