• In a multivariate binary logistic regression analysis, chronic hemodialysis (hazard ratio [HR]: 8.37; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.54 to 27.63; p < 0.001) and peripheral artery disease (HR: 3.77; 95% CI: 1.88 to 7.58; p < 0.001) remained the only independent predictors for developing IE. Negative imaging 15/47 (31.9) Total patients with affected prosthetic valve 22/47 (46.8) Vegetation only on prosthetic valve 12/47 (25.5) Vegetation on prosthetic valve and other valve 7/47 (14.9) Vegetation on prosthetic valve and PM/ICD lead 1/47 (2.1) Vegetation on prosthetic valve, PM/ICD lead and other valve 2/47 (4.3) Paravalvular abscess 9/47 (19.1) Vegetation on other valve than prosthetic valve 4/47 (8.5) Vegetation on PM/ICD lead 3/47 (6.4) Vegetation on PM/ICD lead and other valve 3/47 (6.4) Table 1 Characteristics of Patients Without and With Development of Infective Endocarditis Values are mean ± SD, median (interquartile range), or n (%).AR = aortic regurgitation; CKD = chronic kidney disease stage; COPD = chronic obstructive lung disease; ICD = implantable cardioverter-defibrillator; IE = infective endocarditis; PAD = peripheral artery disease; PM = pacemaker; STS = Society of Thoracic Surgeons; TOE = transesophageal echocardiography; ViV = valve-in-valve.
