摘要
The records of 108 patients treated for bacterial endocarditis were reviewed. Six were diagnosed at autopsy and had not been treated for endocarditis. Of the 102 treated patients, 32 died during the first 30 days and 32 more were dead by 365 days. Although some reports indicate a much greater survival rate, our findings are more in keeping with those reports giving a rather poor long-term outlook for patients with endocarditis. © 1978.
