Summary

This study compares 3D cone beam CT scans to standard dental X-rays in 170 patients hospitalized for infective endocarditis, a serious heart infection. The goal is to see if the 3D scan detects more hidden mouth infections that could cause the heart infection to return. Participants will be randomly assigned to one imaging method and followed for 12 months.

Participants

About 170 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients hospitalized or recently hospitalized for definite IE according to the 2015 ESC classification, naive patients for dental examination and imaging, whatever the IE responsible microorganism; 2. Patients with a stable clinical state, meaning stabilized IE patients out of the critical phase, compatible with the performance of an OPT and a CBCT; 3. Patients whose life expectancy is expected to be longer than 6 months; 4. Patients who agree to visit the dental department of the hospital to carry out OIF eradication or at his/her personal dentist; 5. Patients over 18 years old; 6. Patients affiliated to a Social Security or a health insurance scheme; 7. Patients who have given informed consent to participate to the study. Exclusion Criteria: 1. OPT or CBCT already performed before the inclusion of the patients in the study and available for the investigator during the patient's hospitalization. 2. Medical contraindications to perform OPT or CBCT imaging; 3. Absence of microbiologic identification of the IE responsible microorganism; 4. Pregnant or breastfeeding women; 5. Patients unable to give informed consent to participate to the study (under trusteeship, guardianship and legal protection).
