Value of the serum bactericidal test in management of patients with bacterial endocarditis.

J W Mellors, D L Coleman, V T Andriole.   

Abstract

A review is given of the available clinical data on the prognostic value of the serum bactericidal test in the treatment of patients with bacterial endocarditis. It is concluded that the test, even when performed in a standardized manner, does not provide useful information for the majority of patients with bacterial endocarditis. Until further clinical data are available, routine performance of the test in patients with bacterial endocarditis is not recommended.
