Hi,

Can someone tell me what is the MCC organism of infective endocarditis...Staph aureus or Strep viridans??

Thanks

  #2

Strep viridans MCC followed by Staph aureus.
Staph aureus MCC in intravenous drag abuse
Strep bovis endocarditis/sepsis is associated with colon cancer

  #3

Mc overall is Strep viridians ,
MC sub acute strep viridians
MC acute staph aureas

Only thing I could add to the bovis, all with bowel surgical procedures
