First year after surgery is the optimal period to define early prosthetic valve endocarditis: a cohort study

We consider that the first year after surgery is the most appropriate period for defining early PVE. Our results question whether cases diagnosed in the first 6 months after surgery constitute cases of early EVP and the need for valve replacement, as postulated by European guidelines.

Abstract

We consider that the first year after surgery is the most appropriate period for defining early PVE. Our results question whether cases diagnosed in the first 6 months after surgery constitute cases of early EVP and the need for valve replacement, as postulated by European guidelines.
