About this study

The objective of the study is to create an electronic archive in which to census all newly diagnosed or already diagnosed cases of infective endocarditis and congenital heart disease after 01 January 2022 at the IRCCS AOU Bologna Pediatric and Developmental Age Cardiology Center so that be able to describe the clinical and echocardiographic features in patients with congenital heart disease and infective endocarditis in this population in order to be able to define new diagnostic/epidemiological hypotheses and the identification of predictive factors of adverse outcome (death, re-intervention, re-hospitalization) in patients with congenital heart disease and EI.

Read the detailed description

It is well known in the literature that in patients with congenital heart disease, the risk of developing infective endocarditis (IE) is higher than in the general population with significant variation according to the underlying heart disease.It is essential to identify patients with congenital heart disease at higher risk of developing infective endocarditis and its related complications.Therefore, it is necessary to study the case history of patients with infective endocarditis and heart disease congenital heart disease (analysis of clinical-instrumental data, medical history, comorbidities, the cardiovascular adverse events and population mortality). The objective of the study is to create an electronic archive in which to census all newly diagnosed or already diagnosed cases of infective endocarditis and congenital heart disease after 01 January 2022 at the IRCCS AOU Bologna Pediatric and Developmental Age Cardiology Center so that be able to describe the clinical and echocardiographic features in patients with congenital heart disease and infective endocarditis in this population in order to be able to define new diagnostic/epidemiological hypotheses and the identification of predictive factors of adverse outcome (death, re-intervention, re-hospitalization) in patients with congenital heart disease and EI.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To identify predictive factors of adverse outcome (death, re-intervention, re-hospitalization) in patients with congenital hea

    mortality, and related cause, re-hospitalization following diagnosis of EI (infective endocarditis).

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 5 years
