“…273 Fifty-eight patients who underwent surgery within 1 week of stroke were compared with 140 patients who underwent surgery ≥8 days after stroke. Hospital mortality was numerically but not significantly higher in the early surgery group (22.4% versus 12%).…”

Background— Infective endocarditis is a potentially lethal disease that has undergone major changes in both host and pathogen. The epidemiology of infective endocarditis has become more complex with today’s myriad healthcare-associated factors that predispose to infection. Moreover, changes in pathogen prevalence, in particular a more common staphylococcal origin, have affected outcomes, which have not improved despite medical and surgical advances. Methods and Results— This statement updates the 2005 iteration, both of which were developed by the American Heart Association under the auspices of the Committee on Rheumatic Fever, Endocarditis, and Kawasaki Disease, Council on Cardiovascular Disease of the Young. It includes an evidence-based system for diagnostic and treatment recommendations used by the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association for treatment recommendations. Conclusions— Infective endocarditis is a complex disease, and patients with this disease generally require management by a team of physicians and allied health providers with a variety of areas of expertise. The recommendations provided in this document are intended to assist in the management of this uncommon but potentially deadly infection. The clinical variability and complexity in infective endocarditis, however, dictate that these recommendations be used to support and not supplant decisions in individual patient management.

“…Stroke before surgical decision was also inversely associated with surgery during the index hospitalization, likely reflecting the uncertain timing and safety of surgery in patients with IE complicated by stroke. [30][31][32][33] The majority of stroke in IE occurs at the time of presentation, 34 before or soon after the initiation of antibiotic therapy. 35 Nearly one half of strokes in patients who did not have surgery despite an indication were hemorrhagic.…”
