Wikipedia definition
1. Infective endocarditis​Infective endocarditis is a form of endocarditis, or inflammation, of the inner tissue of the heart, such as its valves, caused by infectious agents. The agents are usually bacterial, but other organisms can also be responsible. The valves of the heart do not receive any dedicated blood supply. As a result, defensive immune mechanisms cannot directly reach the valves via the bloodstream. If an organism attaches to a valve surface and forms a vegetation, the host immune response is blunted.
