Abstract

Endocarditis remains a major worldwide problem despite significant advances in diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. This review centers on the recent studies that have been published in the past year concerning the epidemiologic, diagnostic, and therapeutic aspects of infective and noninfective endocarditis in both the general and special high-risk populations (eg, drug users, HIV-infected patients, and elderly patients).
