A
Previously, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended antibiotic
prophylaxis for many patients with heart murmurs caused by valvular disease (e.g.,
b
mitral valve prolapse, rheumatic heart disease) in an effort to prevent infective
R
endocarditis; however, current guidelines omit this recommendation on the basis of
M
accumulated scientific evidence. If a 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 antibiotic prophylaxis for
F
most dental procedures.
