The reliability of the medical history in the identification of patients at risk for infective endocarditis



PB Lockhart, D Crist, and PH Stone
Division of Dentistry, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston.

The results of the interviews and cardiologic evaluations found no significant correlation between those patients identified by their medical history as having a murmur, and those who were actually found to have a pathological condition warranting prophylactic therapy.
