The Second Heart Program—A multidisciplinary team supporting people who inject drugs with infective endocarditis: Protocol of a feasibility study
<h4>Introduction</h4> Infective endocarditis (IE) is a severe and highly prevalent infection among people who inject drugs (PWID). While short-term (30-day) outcomes are similar between PWID and non-PWID, the long-term outcomes among PWID after IE are poor, with 1-year mortality rates in...
