ABSTRACT
Infective endocarditis (IE) associated with an ASD device, particularly in the early post-procedure period, is extremely rare. We report a case of infective endocarditis presenting with embolic complications and vegetations on the device that were only seen on transesophageal echocardiography, necessitating device removal.

ABSTRACT
The Covid-19 pandemic has meant that all available health workers have been summoned to serve the community.

Keywords: Covid-19, ICU, pandemic, public health system, learning.
