Abstract: Infective endocarditis (IE) is more and more frequent in elderly persons and it has been associated with various clinical, bacteriological, and prognostic features. The intracardiac effects of this infection include severe valvular insufficiency, which may lead to intractable congestive heart failure and myocardial abscesses. IE not only affects the heart but also produces a wide variety of systemic signs and symptoms through several mechanisms, including both sterile and infected emboli and various immunological phenomena.Interestingly, chronic valvular heart disease, does not appear to predispose to infective endocarditis. Endocardită infecţioasă (IE) este mai mult şi mai frecventă la persoanele în vârstă şi a fost asociat cu diverse caracteristiciclinice, bacteriologice, şi prognostic. Efectele intracardiacă acestei infectii includ insuficienţa valvulară severă, care pot conduce la probleme de rezolvat: abcese, insuficienţă cardiacă congestivă şi miocardic. IE nu afectează numai inima, dar produce, de asemenea, o mare varietate de semne şi simptome sistemice prin mai multe mecanisme, inclusiv emboli sterile şi infectate şi diverse fenomene imunologice.
