Clinical Guideline for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Cardiovascular Infections
Abstract
There are many various diseases in the cardiovascular infections, and we tried to make a diagnosis and treatment guideline for several diseases which can be experienced by physician at clinical setting. Infective endocarditis (native and prosthetic valve), myocarditis, pericarditis, suppurative thrombophlebitis, and infective endarteritis and mycotic aneurysm are included in this guideline.
