High mortality of SAB can be significantly reduced by regular infectious disease (ID) consultations and appropriate clinical management. Because the pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has had a negative impact on hospital ID service, it can be assumed that it has also led to decreased quality of care for SAB patients.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>This study enrolled all (n\u2009=\u200968) patients with proven SAB who were hospitalized in Military University Hospital, Prague, in 2019 and 2020 and the quality of care indicators for SAB patients were compared.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A total of 33 and 35 patients with SAB were hospitalized in our hospital in 2019 and 2020, respectively.

Next, higher in-hospital mortality was observed in 2020 than in 2019 (6% vs. 23%; p\u2009=\u20090.085). There was no significant difference in the percentages of patients with performed echocardiographic examinations (66% vs. 83%; p\u2009=\u20090.156) and collected follow-up blood cultures (85% vs. 94%; p\u2009=\u20090.428).
