Antibiotic Prophylaxis Against Infective Endocarditis Before Invasive Dental Procedures
2022, Journal of the American College of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :In addition, there have been 6 case-control or cohort studies,24,28,33,35,37,38 5 of which investigated the association between IDPs and IE24,28,33,37,38 (3 reporting a positive association 28,33,37 even though they were small, underpowered, and performed in populations where AP use could have reduced any association). Three studies assessed AP efficacy24,28,35 and 2 reported a protective effect, despite being small and underpowered.28,35 The largest cohort study demonstrated that AP was associated with a nonsignificant 60% reduction in the incidence of oral streptococcal IE among prosthetic-valve patients 3 months following IDPs (77/million procedures vs 195/million procedures; P = 0.08).24

2020, International Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :The AP prescription strategy is based on the recognition of a PCC that carries a risk of developing IE and a procedure at risk of causing IE bacteremia. Whether AP is a crucial factor for the prevention of IE remains debatable since three case–control studies evidenced an association between dental procedures and streptococcal IE [5–7], whereas three others did not [8–10]. But before any conclusion may be drawn, the primary question, as suggested by several authors, is whether the current guidelines are correctly implemented by the main prescribers of IE AP, i.e., dentists and cardiologists [11,12].
