Résumé
Infective Endocarditis (IE) is a complex, life-threatening disease. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the impact of the Endocarditis-Team on management of IE. This observational study conducted at a university hospital (2015‒22), included adult patients with IE. The study period was divided in two periods: before (pre-Endocarditis-Team; pre-ET) and after the establishment of the Endocarditis-Team (post-Endocarditis-Team; post-ET) on January 2018. Among 505 IE episodes (187 in pre-Endocarditis-Team, 318 in post-ET period), <sup>18</sup> F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography was more commonly used in post-ET period (14 % vs. 28 %; p < 0.001). Overall, thirty-day and one-year mortality were 14 % and 27 %, respectively; no difference was observed between the two periods. In post-ET period, the administration of 4-weeks, rather than 6-weeks, of intravenous antimicrobial treatment was higher than in the post-ET period (15 % vs. 45 %; p < 0.001). Indication for surgery was present in 115 (61 %) patients in pre-ET and in 153 (48 %) in the post-ET period. In post-ET period, among patients with indication, valve surgery was more frequently performed (66 % vs. 78 %; p = 0.038). Such difference was due to a higher acceptance of operative indication by the cardiac surgeon (69 % vs. 94 %; p = 0.013). The observed increase in number of patients benefiting from cardiac surgery in the post-ET period led to a decrease of subsequent embolic events, since among patients with operative indication (n = 268), new embolic events after the establishment of the indication were more common in the pre-ET period compared to post-ET (23 % vs. 12 %; p = 0.033). After the implementation of the multidisciplinary Endocarditis-Team we observed several improvements in the general management of IE patients.
