Dental procedures

  1. Dental extractions
  2. Periodontal procedures including surgery, scaling, and root planing, probing, and recall maintenance

  3. Bronchoscopy with a rigid bronchoscope
  4. woven recording and water-drainage of infect

Genitourinary procedures

Gastronitestinal procedures

The bacteria transport from the blood can localize themselves on the valves or woven it damages to you near anatomical defects with outcome in bacterial endocarditis. That verification in the 30-50% of the children under the two years and in the 70-80% of the children from the 2 to the 15 years with congenital cardiopathy with risk differentiated in:

High Risk CHD for Bacterial Endocarditis

  1. Patent ducstus arteriosus
  2. Interventricular septal defects
  3. Stenosia or aortic coartaction
  4. Systemic-Pulmonaris anastomosis

Medium risk CHD for bacyerial Endocarditis

  1. Pulmonary and tricuspidalis Valvulopaties

Low risk CHD for Bacterial Endocarditis

  1. Interatrial septal defects
  2. Surgical corrected cardiac lesions.

Condition that they do not demand you outlined:

  1. Atrial septal defects operate without patch (after six months)
  2. Patent ductus after six months of closure.

ANTIBIOTICS REGIMEN

DENTAL PROCEDURES WITH BLEEDING Of the GUMS (to extract a single tooth for sitting and to repeat you outlined it in case of multiple extractions)

    For the allergic patients to penicillin can use

  3. Eritromicina 20 mg/kg for the first dose and 10 mg/kg for the second dose or
