She has been told in the past that she needs antibiotics before such a procedure. However, the effectiveness and potential risks of antibiotic prophylaxis are uncertain for this patient. […] Revised American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines do not recommend prophylaxis for patients at moderate risk, such as women with mitral valve prolapse. […] The AHA no longer recommends antibiotics for persons at moderate risk of endocarditis, such as those with mitral valve prolapse. […] There remains no evidence about whether penicillin prophylaxis is effective or ineffective against bacterial endocarditis in persons at risk who are about to undergo an invasive dental procedure. […] It is not clear whether the potential harms and costs of antibiotic administration outweigh any beneficial effect.

[…] The guidelines caused a great deal of controversy at the time, but why? […] Whereas guidelines before that had advised that most patients take antibiotics for dental work with mitral valve prolapse, the new set of recommendations, in a dramatic turnaround, advised against this. […] In fact in most studies looking at these infections, MVP was reported as the major heart diagnosis in those patients going on to develop these infections, and this was the main drive behind using antibiotics to try and prevent infection. […] However, it’s very important to realize that when looking at the entire population of patients with MVP, very few would ever develop such infections, in fact less than 2 in 1000.

• #16 Mitral valve prolapse – Wikipedia

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_valve_prolapse

  Individuals with MVP are at higher risk of bacterial infection of the heart, called infective endocarditis. This risk is approximately three-to eightfold the risk of infective endocarditis in the general population. […] Until 2007, the American Heart Association recommended prescribing antibiotics before invasive procedures, including those in dental surgery. Thereafter, they concluded that „prophylaxis for dental procedures should be recommended only for patients with underlying cardiac conditions associated with the highest risk of adverse outcome from infective endocarditis.” […] The consensus is that mitral valve prolapse is a non-preventable condition, although some of its complications may occur. Because symptoms rarely appear, the productivity of the patient’s life is not affected. The worsening of the disorder can be delayed by avoiding smoking, the use of contraceptives (because they have the risk of clotting) and regulating the amount and type of exercise and nutrition under the supervision of a health professional.

[…] The recommendations, which are outlined in the 2007 AHA Guideline on Prevention of Infective Endocarditis, emphasize that most patients with a history of cardiac health issues do not need routine preventive antibiotics before a dental procedure.

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_valve_prolapse

  Individuals with MVP are at higher risk of bacterial infection of the heart, called infective endocarditis. This risk is approximately three-to eightfold the risk of infective endocarditis in the general population. […] Until 2007, the American Heart Association recommended prescribing antibiotics before invasive procedures, including those in dental surgery. Thereafter, they concluded that „prophylaxis for dental procedures should be recommended only for patients with underlying cardiac conditions associated with the highest risk of adverse outcome from infective endocarditis.” […] The consensus is that mitral valve prolapse is a non-preventable condition, although some of its complications may occur. Because symptoms rarely appear, the productivity of the patient’s life is not affected. The worsening of the disorder can be delayed by avoiding smoking, the use of contraceptives (because they have the risk of clotting) and regulating the amount and type of exercise and nutrition under the supervision of a health professional.
