“…In 1948, Hirsh et al [33] were the first authors to investigate the effect of penicillin on the prevalence of post-dental extraction bacteraemia. The study population was composed of a control group of 65 patients and a study group of 65 patients who received 600,000 IU of penicillin intramuscularly 3 to 4 hours before the dental extraction.…”

“…Mehrere Fälle von Endocarditis lenta wurden 1930 in direkten Zusammenhang mit kurz zuvor durchgeführten Zahnextraktionen gebracht [14]. Die von Hirsh et al 1941 vorgelegte Studie über die Senkung der Bakteriämieinzidenz nach Zahnextraktion durch Vorbehandlung mit Penicillin gilt als erste Empfehlung einer medikamentösen Endokarditisprophylaxe [15]. Nach Verfügbarkeit weiterer Antibiotika empfahl die AHA 1955 als erste medizinische Fachgesellschaft eine Endokarditisprophylaxe [16].…”

“…Studies in the 1930s and 1940s demonstrated the presence of bacteremias after dental manipulations or extractions. Subsequently, a 1948 study by Hirsch et al (4) showed that a preprocedure dose of penicillin could reduce the risk of bacteremia after a dental extraction. In 1953, Arthur Bloomfield suggested the prophylactic use of penicillin to prevent the development of infective endocarditis due to bacteremias secondary to oral procedures, such as dental extraction (5).…”
