<b>Prophylaxis not recommended</b> for pacemaker/similar implanted electronics, completed closed septal defect devices, peripheral vascular graft/patch (including for HD), coronary/vascular stents, CNS ventriculoatrial shunt, vena cava filter, pledget.
<br><br>
Four conditions warrant prophylaxis for specific dental/oral surgery procedures:<br>
• <b>Prosthetic cardiac valve/material</b><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Prosthetic valve (including transcatheter-implanted)<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Valve repair w/ device (e.g., annuloplasty ring/clip)<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ LVAD or implantable heart<br>
• <b>Previous/relapsed/recurrent IE</b><br>
• <b>CHD</b><br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Unrepaired cyanotic congenital CHD (including palliative shunt, conduit)<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Congenital defect repaired w/ prosthetic material/device (via surgery/transcatheter) w/in 6mo after repair<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Repaired w/ residual defects @ site of/adjacent to prosthetic patch/device<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Surgical/transcatheter PA valve/conduit<br>
• <b>Cardiac txp w/ valvulopathy</b>

• Non–high-risk CHD including bicuspid aortic valve (however, isolated ASD and repaired VSD/PDA 6+ mo post-op w/o residual shunt deemed low risk)<br>
• MVP w/ regurg<br>
• acquired valvular dz (however, mitral stenosis w/o regurg and functional murmur are deemed low risk)<br>
• hypertrophic cardiomyopathy w/ obstruction<br>
• intracardiac devices (pacemaker, implantable defibrillator)<br>
• chronic central venous catheter
