BACTERIAL ENDOCARDITIS AND ENDODÔNTICO TREATMENT: ETIOLOGY AND THERAPEUTIC PROCESS

Abstract

Abstract: Infective endocarditis is a primary cause of infections, being a definition defined by microbial diseases of the endothelial surface of the cardiac and cardiac chambers. Objective: to carry out an integrative review of the literature on endodontic treatment and its relationship with bacterial endocarditis. Methodology: a literature search was carried out through electronic databases: UpDate; Direct Science; LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences) and an electronic library: SciELO. There were two keywords for the composition used in the search key, the DeCS being: “Bacterial, Endocarditis”; and the free term: “Endodontic treatment”. Articles were included according to pre-established inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results and Discussion: of the 13 articles that met the selected criteria, only 8 articles did not address the development of bacterial endocarditis resulting from endodontic treatment and its therapeutic processes. studies prove the presence of oral bacteria in some cardiac treatments, the possibility of an unsuccessful endodontic treatment. The therapeutic process of endocarditis has two principles, but the most pre-configured is the surgical one due to the possibility of hemorrhage due to anticoagulant treatment, and an antibiotic prescription may be necessary. Final Considerations: factors such as poor clinical hygiene in the endodontic treatment and some systemic complications may occur from oral trials, the literature randomized lo-c and direct influence of the treatment so that it is proven to be in oral trials, the literature randomized lo-c and direct influence of treatment that is proven to be randomized clinical trials. endodontic treatment with endocarditis.
