Synopsis

This book brings together experts from leading global institutions with diverse backgrounds and experiences for clinical perspectives on Infectious Endocarditis (IE) in all stages. In the past, this disease claimed lives within as little as 2-3 months; advanced diagnostics, pharmacological treatments, and team-based care have significantly improved patient outcomes, yet there are very few resources available for physicians who need to work together to make this possible. This book bridges this gap, exploring medical and surgical treatments in a wider portion of the medical community. The clinical presentation and management of patients with IE is the starting point for significant change in how physicians approach this problem.

 

Infectious Endocarditis is an excellent multidisciplinary resource for infectious disease specialists, primary care physicians, neurologists, cardiologists, radiology, emergency medicine, addiction medicine specialists, surgeons, and all others who may encounter this condition.
