Infective Endocarditis Mortality Stable After the Pandemic
New reporting indicates that mortality rates from infective endocarditis, a serious infection of the heart's inner lining, have remained stable in the period following the COVID-19 pandemic. The finding addresses concerns that pandemic-related disruptions to healthcare, delayed diagnoses and increased injection drug use might have driven a rise in deaths from the condition, suggesting outcomes held steady despite those pressures.
Why now: Post-pandemic concerns about disrupted cardiac care make confirmation that death rates from this serious heart infection have not risen notable to clinicians and health watchers.
