“…Our findings are based on data from an unselected patient cohort and provide novel results on a patient population sparsely described. A study from 14 French hospitals included 120 patients with IE ≥75 years and identified that 15.8% underwent valvular surgery [31]. A Spanish study from four tertiary centers identified that 17.6% (N = 6) of octogenarian patients underwent surgery.…”

Also, NIS cannot precisely account for patients' current functional, nutritional or cognitive characteristics, as these were recently shown to be key prognostic parameters of IE in elderly patients [21].…”

“…4 Forestier et al determined that elderly patients with IE have an increased likelihood for developing malnutrition, leading to overall greater mortality. 5 However, the study evaluated only elderly patients (mean age: 83 years) who were followed during and after hospitalizations. Because of the high prevalence of malnutrition in hospitals, it is likely to affect a broader age range of patients with IE.…”

“…Malnutrition impacts over 30% of hospitalized patients 1‐3 but is often underrecognized in acute care settings 4 . Forestier et al determined that elderly patients with IE have an increased likelihood for developing malnutrition, leading to overall greater mortality 5 . However, the study evaluated only elderly patients (mean age: 83 years) who were followed during and after hospitalizations.…”
