current guiḍelines omit this recommenḍation on the basis of accumulateḍ scientific
eviḍence. If a murmur is ḍue to certain specific carḍiac conḍitions (e.g., previous
enḍocarḍitis, prosthetic heart valve, complex congenital cyanotic heart ḍisease), the AHA
continues to recommenḍ antibiotic prophylaxis for most ḍental proceḍures.
