Abstract:
patients with infective endocarditis were analyzed. Anong them, 75 were patients with congenital heart disease (72 1%), 21 were patients with rheumatic heart disease and 8 were patients without heart disease(7 7%). It is suggested that early diagnoses and treatment of CHD are the main pretective methods for reducing the incidence of IE; the incidence of fever, anaemia, embolism, hepatomegaly and splenomegaly, etc. declines notably; the possibility of excrescence invading aortic valve (44 2%) is higher than that of mitral valve (24 7%), and IE of aortic valve results in heart failure in a short while and the valve replacement should be done as early as possible; positive rate of blood culture declines because of extensive use of antibiotics; appropriate medical treatment combined with active surgical treatment plays an important role in the treatment of IE.
