Outcomes of Prosthetic Valve Endocarditis Managed by a Multidisciplinary Endocarditis Team: A Retrospective Cohort Study
In this cohort of patients with PVE, individualized treatment guided by a multidisciplinary team was associated with favourable short-term outcomes. Medical therapy may be a safe alternative in selected patients without surgical indications. Early identification of acute renal dysfunction may assist in prognostication and inform management decisions.
