The POET trial demonstrated that moving from intravenous to oral antibiotics in stable patients with left-sided infective endocarditis (IE) was noninferior fully parenteral treatment. However, it did not compare outpatient strategies. OraPAT-IE GAMES is a noninferiority, multicenter, randomized, open-label study aimed partial versus antibiotic therapy (OPAT) for consolidation of treatment IE. A total 342 IE caused by selected micro-organisms will eventually be included. After minimum 10 days...

Background and Objectives: To characterize the frequency, risk factors, clinical presentation etiological subtypes of cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) following cardiac transplantation (CTX). Methods: In a retrospective review our CTX database (period 1984–2002), we assessed demographic data, vascular surgery donor details. We classified ischemic stroke (IS) using criteria Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project TOAST study. Logistic regression analysis survival curves were carried out. Results:...
Tricuspid valve replacement has been associated with high mortality and poor long-term outcomes. We report the preoperative risk factors short outcomes following tricuspid mechanical prostheses.In 62 patients who underwent replacement, clinical, laboratory, echocardiographic findings were analyzed using both univariate multivariate analyses to describe operative mortality.In our population (mean age 59 ± 9.7 years, 82.3% female), most common causes of disease rheumatic fever (69.4%)...
Myocarditis is an infrequent extrapulmonary manifestation of tuberculosis that confers unfavourable prognosis.A 36-year-old man presented to the hospital with palpitations and dyspnoea. Tests revealed presence non-sustained ventricular tachycardia, mild elevation troponin C-reactive protein levels. Coronary angiography showed normal results. A cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) moderate hypertrophy, preserved ejection fraction, extensive multi-segmental pattern fibrosis oedema. An...
