Clinical Significance and Prognostic Value of Hemostasis Parameters in 337 Patients with Acute Infective Endocarditis
(1) Background: The aim of this study was to assess the clinical significance and prognostic role of the main hemostasis parameters in infective endocarditis (IE): prothrombin time as international normalized ratio (PT-INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), fibrinogen, D-dimers, platele...

PVE (<i>p</i> = 0.001), a higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (<i>p</i> = 0.049), surgical indication (<i>p</i> = 0.001) and prolonged aPTT (<i>p</i> = 0.012) were independent predictors of 1-year mortality.
