Description

The video showcases infective endocarditis, illustrating the formation of vegetations on the heart valves, particularly the mitral and aortic valves. It demonstrates how these infected masses disrupt the normal function of the valves, leading to impaired blood flow and potential complications like embolism or valve damage. This visualization is essential for healthcare professionals to understand the progression of the infection, its impact on the heart’s function, and the subsequent risks involved in managing the condition.
