previously, the american heart association (aha) recommended antibiotic prophylaxis for
q q q q q q q q q q



many patients with heart murmurs caused by valvular disease (e.g., mitral valve prolapse,

rheumatic heart disease) in an effort to prevent infective endocarditis; however, current

guidelines omit this recommendation on the basis of accumulated scientific evidence. if a
q q q q q q q q q q q q q



murmur is due to certain specific cardiac conditions (e.g., previous endocarditis, prosthetic

heart valve, complex congenital cyanotic heart disease), the aha continues to recommend
