Update on
Infective Endocarditis
Pathogenesis
• Disruption of the endocardial layer
as a complication of abnormal blood
flow associated with underlying
cardiac defect
• Bacterium-endothelium interaction
with bacterial attachment and
invasion of endothelial cells
Epidemiology
• Underlying valvular abnormality
predisposing to infective endocarditis
– rheumatic fever
a common cause in the past
– mitral valve prolapse
currently represents the most common
underlying cardiac abnormality
mitral valve prolapse
• risk for infective ednocarditis is 5x-8x
• mitral regurgitation increases the risk
• leaflet redundancy with myxomatous
degeneration is a frequent finding
• age <20 , female predominate
age >20 , male accounts for 60%
age >50 , male accounts for 68%

Coagulase-negative Staphylococci
• can produce native-valve endocarditis in
mitral valve prolapse
• usually subacute, difficult to diagnose,
and disregarded as a contaminant
• delay in diagnosis and treatment may
account for the severe complications
– myocardial abscess formation
– valvular insufficiency requiring valve surgery
– death
Prosthetic Heart Valve
• positive blood culture in hospitalized
patients with underlying prosthetic valves
can be a harbinger of endocarditis
• 43% patients with nosocomial bacteremia
or fungemia had prosthetic valve infection
• a serious complication
IV Drug Use
• Recurrent
• Polymicrobial
• Staph aureus accounts for the
majority of cases of endocarditis
• tricuspid valve, either alone or in
combination, us most often infected

IV drug use is the predominant risk factor
younger age (mean 36.5 years)
2/3 were male
right-sided cardiac involvement in > 60%
streptococci more frequent than S. aureus
1/3 of patients died
mortality rate is 4x higher for pure leftsides vs pure right-sided endocarditis
Diagnostic (Duke) Criteria
• Definitive infective endocarditis
– pathologic criteria
• microorganisms or pathologic lesions:
demonstrated by culture or histology in a
vegetation, or in a vegetation that has
embolized, or in an intracardiac abscess
– clinical criteria (see below)
• two major criteria, or one major and three
minor criteria, or five minor criteria
Diagnostic (Duke) Criteria
• Possible infective endocarditis
– findings consistent of IE that fall short of
“definite”, but not “rejected”
• Rejected
– firm alternate Dx for manifestation of IE
– resolution ofmanifestations of IE, with
antibiotic therapy for  4 days
– no pathologic evidence of IE at surgery or
autopsy, after antibiotic therapy for  4 days
Diagnostic (Duke) Criteria
• Major criteria
– positive blood culture for IE
– evidence of endocardial involvement
• Minor criteria
–
–
–
–
predisposition (heart condition or IV drug use)
fever of 100.40F or higher
vascular or immunologic phenomena
microbiologic or echocardiographic evidence
not meeting major criteria
Duke’s Major Criteria
• positive blood culture for IE
– typical microorganism (strep viridans, strep
bovis, HACEK group, staph aureus or
enterococci in the absence of a primary locus)
for endocarditis from two separate blood
cultures
– persistently positive blood culture from:
• blood cultures drawn more than 12 hr apart, or
• all of 3 or a majority of 4 or more separate blood
cultures, with first and last drqwn at least 1 hr apart
Duke’s Major Criteria
• Evidence of endocardial involvement
– positive echocardiogram for endocarditis
• oscillating intracardiac mass on valve or supporting
structure, or in the path of regurgitant jets, or on
implanted material, in the absence of an alternate
anatomic explanation
• abscess
• new partial dehiscence of prosthetic valve
– new valvular regurgitation (increase or change
in pre-existing murmur not sufficient)
Duke’s Minor Criteria
• predisposition (predisposing heart
condition or iv drug use)
• fever of 100.40F or higher
• vascular phenomena (major arterial
emboli, septic pulmonary infarcts, mycotic
aneurysm, intracranial hemorrhage,
conjunctive hemorrhages, Janeway
lesions)
Duke’s Minor Criteria
• immunologic phenomena
(glomerulonephritis, Osler’s nodes, Roth
spots, rheumatoid factor)
• microbiologic evidence (positive blood
culture not meeting major criteria or
serologic evidence of active infection with
organism consistent with IE)
• echocardiogram (consistent with IE but
not meeting major criteria)
Risk for Endocarditis
• High risk
– prosthetic cardiac valve
– prior episodes of endocarditis
– complex congenital cardiac defect
– surgically constructed systemicpulmonary shunts or conduits
Risk for Endocarditis
• Moderate risk
– patent ductus arteriosus
– VSD, primum ASD
– coarctation of the aorta
– bicuspid aortic valve
– hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
– acquired valvular dysfunction
– MVP with mitral regurgitation
Risk for Endocarditis
• Low risk
– isolated secundum atrial septal defect
– ASD, VSD, or PDA >6 months past
repair
– “innocent” heart murmur by
auscultation in the pediatric population
– “innocent” heart murmur by
echocardiography in adult patients
Treatment
• Pre-antibiotic era - a death sentence
• Antibiotic era
– microbiologic cure in majority of
patients
New Treatments
• Right-sided infective endocarditis due to
methicillin-susceptible S aureus (MSSA) in
IV drug users
– 2-wk therapy with a penicillinase-resistant
penicillin and an aminoglycoside
– 2-wk monotherapy with IV cloxacillin
– short-term therapy is inappropriate if
complicated by ostomyelitis, meningitis,
myocardial abscess, or concomitant left-sided
involvement
New Treatments
• Highly penicillin-susceptible
Streptococcus viridans or bovis
– Once-daily ceftriaxone for 4 wks
• cure rate > 98%
• easily administered as outpatient, avoid
hospitalization, offers significant cost savings
– Once-daily ceftriaxone 2 g for 2wks followed
by oral amoxicillin qid for 2 wks
– Once-daily ceftriazone and netilmicin for 2 wks
New Treatments
• Prosthetic valve endocarditis due to
fluconazole-susceptible Candida species
– many are due to bloodstream invasion
– chronic oral suppressive therapy with
fluconazole for inoperable disease
