We report on a series of disseminated Staphylococcus aureus infections with cardiac involvement, associated with intravenous bath salts use, presenting over a 3-week period in 2 central New York tertiary care hospitals. Two of the cases involved echocardiogram-documented endocarditis and the third case involved electrocardiogram (ECG)/echocardiogram-documented pericarditis. All 3 patients had cavitary lung lesions and 1 also had septic joint lesions. To our knowledge, these are first reported cases of cardiac infections associated with the use of intravenous bath salts.
