About

Infective endocarditis (IE) is a severe condition associated with high mortality. Due to the relative low prevalence of IE, prospective data are lacking and current guidelines are mostly based on expert consensus with low level of evidence. IE is also associated with severe complications especially strokes that occur in about one third of the patients.

In order to improve the management and the prognosis of IE, clinical data from larges prospective cohort studies are needed.
