Silent brain damage found in heart infection patients
NCT ID NCT02252900
Summary
This study followed 100 people who had infectious endocarditis (a serious heart infection) to see how brain lesions found on MRI scans change over time. Researchers compared brain scans taken during the initial infection with follow-up scans to understand if these brain changes affect thinking skills and daily functioning. The study did not test treatments but aimed to gather knowledge about long-term brain health after this serious infection.
