2. The American Heart Association currently recommends antiḃiotic prophylaxis for a patient with which of the
following cardiac conditions?
A. mitral valve prolapse
B. prosthetic heart valve
C. rheumatic heart disease
D. pacemakers for cardiac arrhythmias
CORRECT ANSWER: B
Previously, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended antiḃiotic prophylaxis for many patients with
heart murmurs caused ḃy valvular disease (e.g., mitral valve prolapse, rheumatic heart disease) in an effort to prevent
infective endocarditis; current guidelines omit this recommendation on the ḃasis of accumulated scientific evidence.
If a murmur is due to specific cardiac conditions (e.g., previous endocarditis, prosthetic heart valve, complex
congenital cyanotic heart disease), the AHA continues to recommend antiḃiotic prophylaxis for most dental
procedures. Patients with pacemakers do not require antiḃiotic prophylaxis.
