“…This fact has been overcome since the inclusion of transthoracic echocardiography and transesophageal echocardiography [10,11] Transesophageal echocardiography has shown a high sensitivity and specificity [12,13] . In this study, no statistically significant differences regarding survival and event-free survival were found between patients with positive or negative blood culture IE.…”

“…Eleven of these studies are included in Table 1 Transesophageal echocardiography has also been found to be more sensitive than TTE in groups of patients at high risk for IE. These groups include the elderly (90% vs 45%) and those with prosthetic valves (83% vs 27.5%) [32,34]. Additionally, TEE has been found to be invaluable in diagnosing those patients with right-sided endocarditis, as well as those with nonvalvular endocarditis such as mural or eustachian valve lesions or pacemaker IE.…”
