Infective Endocarditis in the Elderly: Description of the Geriatric Characteristics and Their Influence on Therapeutic Care and the Morbidity and Mortality at 3 Months (ELDERL-IE)

ELDERL-IE is a multicenter national prospective observational study.

The main objective is to describe geriatric characteristics (comorbidities, cognitive status, autonomy, nutritional status, balance and walking) in patients aged 75 years or older with infective endocarditis (IE).

The secondary objectives are to assess the impact of geriatric features on the medico - surgical care and on morbidity and mortality at 3 months after the end of the hospitalization, and to describe the initial clinical presentation and diagnostic modalities in the IE elderly.
