2. The American Heart Association currently recommends antibiotic prophylaxis for a patient with which
of the following cardiac conditions?

A. mitral valve prolapse

B. prosthetic heart valve

C. rheumatic heart disease

D. pacemakers for cardiac arrhythmias

ANSWER: B

Previously, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended antibiotic prophylaxis for many
patients with heart murmurs caused by valvular disease (e.g., mitral valve prolapse, rheumatic heart
disease) in an effort to prevent infective endocarditis; current guidelines omit this recommendation on the
basis of accumulated scientific evidence. If a murmur is due to specific cardiac conditions (e.g., previous
endocarditis, prosthetic heart valve, complex congenital cyanotic heart disease), the AHA continues to
recommend antibiotic prophylaxis for most dental procedures. Patients with pacemakers do not require
antibiotic prophylaxis.
