Outcomes of infective endocarditis in patients with end-stage renal disease in Spain: a population-based study
Patients with ESRD and IE exhibit distinct clinical and microbiological characteristics compared to other IE patients. Additionally, they are less likely to undergo cardiac surgery and experience significantly higher in-hospital mortality rates. In ESRD patients with IE, neither dialysis treatment nor cardiac surgery were identified as independent risk factors for mortality.
