[Prevention of infectious endocarditis following manipulations of the urogenital tract].
Instrumentation of the genito-urinary tract may cause transient bacteremia, it can result in bacterial endocarditis in predispose subject. We studied the incidence of transient bacteremia following urogenital procedure and discovered a 2.6% rate in 196 patients. Therefore we studied antimicrobial prophylaxis against strains isolated from urocultures (35 strains) and blood cultures (6 strains). The strain's minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) confirms antibioprophylaxis suggested by American Heart Association (AHA). Mean-while, according to our results, netilmicin is the best choice.
