Microbial Transitions in Infective Endocarditis Influence the Spectrum of Clinical Features and Functional Outcomes
<i>Staphylococcus</i> spp. are predominant pathogens in IE and are frequently associated with intense intracardiac involvement. Age and appropriately timed surgical intervention correlated with improved functional outcomes, indicating that early recognition and individualized treatment strategies may enhance prognosis. Timely and pathogen-directed management are important in IE.
