Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the performance of the Duke clinical criteria of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC; 2015 and 2023 versions) and the 2023 International Society for Cardiovascular Infectious Diseases (ISCVID) in diagnosing infective endocarditis (IE) among patients with bacteraemia/candidaemia by pathogens introduced for the first time as typical microorganisms by ISCVID.
Methods: Retrospective study.
Setting: This study included adult patients with bacteraemia/candidaemia by such pathogens (coagulase negative staphylococci, Abiotrophia spp., Gemella spp., and Granulicatella spp., Cutibacterium. acnes, Corynebacterium striatum, C. jeikeium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia marcescens, non-tuberculous mycobacteria, and Candida spp.) hospitalized at Lausanne University Hospital. Episodes were classified as IE by two expert clinicians.
Results: Among 463 episodes with bacteraemia/candidaemia by such pathogens, IE was diagnosed in 63 episodes (14%). IE prevalence was 17% among episodes with bacteraemia by Staphylococcus lugdunensis or Abiotrophia spp. No case of IE was identified among Granulicatella spp. and Gemella spp. bacteraemias. Among 113 episodes with intracardiac prosthetic material, IE prevalence was 51% in episodes with bacteraemia by S. epidermidis. Sensitivity for the 2015 Duke-ESC, 2023 Duke-ISCVID, and the 2023 Duke-ESC clinical criteria was calculated at 5%, 57%, and 8%, respectively. More episodes were classified as possible IE by the 2023 Duke-ISCVID (30%) compared to 2015 Duke-ESC (13%) and 2023 Duke-ESC (16%) clinical criteria.
Conclusion: The 2023 ISCVID version demonstrated superior sensitivity compared to both 2015 and 2023 Duke-ESC in diagnosing IE caused by new typical microorganisms, compared to the other criteria, albeit an increase in cases being classified as possible IE.
期刊介绍:
Infection is a journal dedicated to serving as a global forum for the presentation and discussion of clinically relevant information on infectious diseases. Its primary goal is to engage readers and contributors from various regions around the world in the exchange of knowledge about the etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of infectious diseases, both in outpatient and inpatient settings.
The journal covers a wide range of topics, including:
Etiology: The study of the causes of infectious diseases.
Pathogenesis: The process by which an infectious agent causes disease.
Diagnosis: The methods and techniques used to identify infectious diseases.
Treatment: The medical interventions and strategies employed to treat infectious diseases.
Public Health: Issues of local, regional, or international significance related to infectious diseases, including prevention, control, and management strategies.
Hospital Epidemiology: The study of the spread of infectious diseases within healthcare settings and the measures to prevent nosocomial infections.
In addition to these, Infection also includes a specialized "Images" section, which focuses on high-quality visual content, such as images, photographs, and microscopic slides, accompanied by brief abstracts. This section is designed to highlight the clinical and diagnostic value of visual aids in the field of infectious diseases, as many conditions present with characteristic clinical signs that can be diagnosed through inspection, and imaging and microscopy are crucial for accurate diagnosis. The journal's comprehensive approach ensures that it remains a valuable resource for healthcare professionals and researchers in the field of infectious diseases.
