Points to ponder...• IE is infection of the cardiac tissue/related structures -
valves• Is a complication of congenital and acquired heart
disease can change the outcome of the heart disease
• Lesion associated with a high velocity jet of blood or an intra cardiac prosthesis
• Predisposing factors - dental or surgical procedure, following cardiac surgery
• Relatively rare in children• Pre-antibiotic era: mortality was nearly 100%

Infective Endocarditis
• Febrile illness• Persistent bacteremia• Characteristic lesion of microbial infection
of the endothelial surface of the heart
– Variable in size– Amorphous mass of fibrin & platelets– Abundant organisms– Few inflammatory cells
The vegetation

Distinction between Acute and Subacute Bacterial Endocarditis
Feature Acute Subacute
Underlying Heart Disease
Heart may be normal RHD,CHD, etc.
Organism S. aureus, Pneumococcus
S. pyogenes,
Enterococcus
viridans
Streptococci,
Entercoccus
Therapy Prompt, vigorous and initiated on empirical ground
Can often be delayed until culture reports and susceptibilities available

Prevention – the underlying lesion
• High risk lesions– Prosthetic valves
– Prior IE
– Cyanotic congenital heart disease
– PDA
– AR, AS, MR,MS with MR
– VSD
– Coarctation
– Surgical systemic-pulmonary shunts
• Intermediate risk– MVP with murmur– Pure MS– Tricuspid disease– Pulmonary stenosis– ASH– Bicuspid Ao valve with no
hemodynamic significance
Lesions at highest risk

Prevention – the underlying lesion
• Low/no risk– MVP without murmur– Trivial valvular regurg.– Isolated ASD– Implanted device
(pacer, ICD)– CAD– CABG

Culprits...
• Viridans group of streptococci ( haemolytic strep) - flora of mouth
• Enterococci - gastrointestinal tract
• Staphylococcus aureus
• Fungi

Pathophysiology
• Embolization• Clinically evident 11 – 43% of patients• Pathologically present 45 – 65%• High risk for embolization
» Large > 10 mm vegetation» Hypermobile vegetation» Mitral vegetations (esp. anterior leaflet)
• Pulmonary (septic) – 65 – 75% of i.v. drug abusers with tricuspid IE

When to suspect…?• Congenital/acquired
heart lesion• Continued fever• Anorexia, weight loss,
malaise• Pallor - demonstrate a
drop in Hb%• Clubbing, petechiae• Splinter haemorrhages
etc - not usually found
• Murmur - failure, changing murmurs
• Splenomegaly• Embolic phenomena
to lungs/kidneys/brain limbs (rare since use of antibiotics)
• Urine - microscopic haematuria (immune complex)
