o Major: typical microorganism (strep viridans, strep bovis, staph aureus, or
enterococci) from 2 separate blood cultures; positive echo
o Minor: predisposing risk factor (CHD, RHD, catheter, prosthetic valve, IVDU);
fever >38; evidence of emboli (arterial, pulmonary, janeway, conjunctival);
immune problems (glomerulonephritis, osler nodes); positive blood culture
(that isn’t major)
Rheumatic heart disease – Jones criteria (known GAS plus 2 major or 1 major and 1
minor)
o Major: joints; heart; nodules; erythema marginatum; syndenham chorea
o Minor: arthralgia; elevated ESR/CRP; prolonged PR; leukocytosis; hx of RH
“Boot shaped heart” = tetralogy of fallot
“Wall to wall heart” = ebstein’s anomaly
