Abstract
Background: Streptococci are a common cause of infective endocarditis (IE). We aimed to evaluate the performance of the HANDOC score to identify patients at high risk for IE and the Duke clinical criteria of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC; 2015 and 2023 versions) and the 2023 version from the International Society of Cardiovascular Infectious Diseases (ISCVID) in diagnosing IE among patients with streptococcal bacteremia.
Methods: This retrospective study included adult patients with streptococcal bacteremia hospitalized at Lausanne University Hospital. Episodes were classified as IE by the Endocarditis Team. A HANDOC score >2 classified patients as high risk for IE.
Results: Among 851 episodes with streptococcal bacteremia, IE was diagnosed in 171 episodes (20%). Among 607 episodes with non-β-hemolytic streptococci, 213 (35%) had HANDOC scores >2 points; 132 (22%) had IE. The sensitivity of the HANDOC score to identify episodes at high risk for IE was 95% (95% confidence interval [CI], 90%-98%), the specificity 82% (95% CI, 78%-85%), and the negative predictive value (NPV) 98% (95% CI, 96%-99%). 2015 Duke-ESC, 2023 Duke-ISCVID, and 2023 Duke-ESC clinical criteria classified 114 (13%), 145 (17%), and 126 (15%) episodes as definite IE, respectively. Sensitivity (95% CI) for the 2015 Duke-ESC, 2023 Duke-ISCVID, and 2023 Duke-ESC clinical criteria was calculated at 65% (57%-72%), 81% (74%-86%), and 73% (65%-79%), respectively, with specificity (95% CI) at 100% (98%-100%), 99% (98%-100%), and 99% (98%-100%), respectively.
Conclusions: The HANDOC score showed an excellent NPV to identify episodes at high risk for IE. Among the different versions of the Duke criteria, the 2023 Duke-ISCVID version fared better for the diagnosis of IE among streptococcal bacteremia.
