“…In this context, factors such as age, comorbidities, clinical presentation and surgical technique used in valve approach can influence the postoperative results [18,19]. Although there is no statistical difference between the groups in age, this variable was found as an independent predictor of 30-day mortality in patients with IE, reinforcing results of Murdoch et al [20].…”

“…No que diz respeito à classificação anatomopatológica, houve maior mortalidade, em análise univariada (p=0,0002, r.c.=5,33/ p=0,0008, r.c.=4,57) e multivariada (p=0,0100, r.c.=4,77), nos pacientes com valva apresentando grande destruição ou abscesso e prótese. Alguns autores demonstraram que a presença de abscesso ou destruição do anel foram determinantes de maior mortalidade [11,14,17,19,23]. Alguns estudos apresentaram maior mortalidade em endocardite protética [12,13].…”
