In spite of introducing antibacterial agents in prophylaxis of infective endocarditis (I.E.) more than 50 years ago, the optimal scheme for indication and application of the prophylaxis has not been solved. Evidences accumulate that prophylaxis (being developed to cover some medical procedures leading to bacteremia) can prevent only a small part (< 10%) of cases of I.E. The most effective protection from I.E. is the systematic care for gums and mucosae of the mouth cavity.
尽管在50多年前就已引入抗菌药物来预防感染性心内膜炎（I.E.），但预防的指征和应用的最佳方案仍未得到解决。越来越多的证据表明，预防措施（旨在涵盖一些导致菌血症的医疗程序）只能预防一小部分（<10%）的感染性心内膜炎病例。预防感染性心内膜炎最有效的方法是对口腔牙龈和黏膜进行系统护理。
