Incidence, predisposing factors, and aetiology of infective endocarditis in the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence and epidemiological characteristics of infective endocarditis (IE) in the Czech Republic. These results represent the first data on the epidemiology of IE from the post-communist countries. This was a prospective multi-centre observational study monitoring the occurrence of IE in the catchment areas of 29 hospitals during a 12-month period. The total monitored territory involved a population of 3.9 million people (37.7% of the total Czech population).Patients were included in the study if they had a diagnosis of possible or define endocarditis according to the modified Duke criteria. One hundred and thirty-four episodes of IE in 132 patients were reported. Thus the crude incidence of IE was 3.4 cases/100,000 inhabitants/y. Vegetations were most frequetly found on the aortic and mitral valves. The most frequent agent was Straphylococcus aureus (29.9%). The aetiology remained unexplained in 33.6% of cases, mainly because of previous an
