Abstract
Current practice guidelines recommend antibiotic prophylaxis in patients with high-risk congenital heart conditions, including those with Prosthetic heart valves and prosthetic material, including annuloplasty rings or clips undergoing invasive dental procedures. However, there is limited clinical data on the burden of infective endocarditis (IE) following Mitral TEER. This study investigated temporal trends of very early IE immediately after TEER using National Inpatient Sample from 2016 - 2020. It showed that the rate of very early TEER-related IE was relatively low over the five years of analysis and that there was a downward trend of very early IE after TEER.
