Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Treatment of the IE with antibiotics should be started as quickly as possible,but it is essential to obtain blood cultures before starting antibiotic therapy to obtain accurate sensitivity results. The echocardiogram and acetaminophen administration also should be implemented rapidly,but the blood cultures (and then administration of the antibiotic)have the highest priority.
