- Abstract: Infective endocarditis(IE)is an infectious disease on the endocardial surface,which is usually divided into acute(symptoms last for 6 weeks),sub-acute(symptoms last for 6 weeks to 3 months),and chronic(symptoms last for more than 3 months).IE is a systemic disease,which not only affects the heart itself,but also affects the function of multiple organs throughout the body.Therefore,the treatment of IE requires multidisciplinary involvement,especially the department of cardiothoracic surgery,infection department and imaging department.This study reviews the current research progress on the diagnosis and treatment of IE at home and abroad,in order to provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of IE.
