- 外科手术的结果
背景情况:
- 左侧传染性内心炎 (IE) 通常需要手术干预.
- 很大一部分患有IE手术指示的患者没有接受手术.
- 这些非手术治疗患者的特征和结果没有得到充分的记录.
研究的目的:
- 描述左侧IE患者的基线特征,这些患者是手术候选人,但仅接受医疗治疗.
- 为了比较外科治疗和医疗治疗的左侧IE患者之间的结果,特别是生存率.
- 为了确定影响不接受手术的决定的因素,符合条件的患者.
主要方法:
- 从2018年1月到2021年12月,对154名感染性内心炎患者的观察队列 (ENVALVE) 的回顾性分析.
- 计算了卡普兰-梅尔生存估计值.
- 两变Cox模型和多变逻辑回归,根据接受手术的倾向进行调整,用于评估生存率和影响治疗决策的因素.
主要成果:
- 116名患者接受了手术,而38名患者仅接受了医疗治疗.

Infective endocarditis (IE) is a chronic infection of the heart's endocardium, primarily affecting the heart valves. A detailed nursing assessment for a patient with IE involves collecting subjective and objective data to ensure an accurate diagnosis and timely intervention.Subjective DataThe nurse gathers information about the patient's symptoms and complaints during the subjective assessment. Patients with infective endocarditis often report non-specific symptoms that can mimic other...

Endocarditis I: Introduction
12
Introduction:Endocarditis is the infection of the endocardium, the inner lining of the heart and its valves. When the heart muscle is involved, the condition is termed myocarditis, while an infection of the outer lining is called pericarditis. Infective endocarditis (IE) primarily affects the endocardium, where pathogens adhere to the valves or lining, forming vegetation that can lead to severe complications. Infective endocarditis occurs when microorganisms, usually bacteria from other body...

Endocarditis can present various clinical features depending on the causative organism and the patient's underlying health conditions. Initially, the clinical features of infective endocarditis develop gradually, presenting with nonspecific symptoms that can be easily mistaken for other illnesses.General SymptomsEarly symptoms of infective endocarditis are fever, chills, weakness, malaise, fatigue, and weight loss. These symptoms reflect the systemic nature of the infection and the body's...

Mitral stenosis, a condition marked by the narrowing of the mitral valve, necessitates an integrated approach for effective management. This approach includes preventative measures, medical therapy, and surgical interventions to reduce symptoms and prevent complications.PreventionPrevention of mitral stenosis primarily focuses on reducing the incidence of bacterial infections, particularly streptococcal infections, which can lead to rheumatic fever and subsequent valvular damage. Timely...
