Abstract
Early treatment following an assured diagnosis offers the best prognosis in rheumatic fever. The laboratory can aid the clinician but the disease is still one to be diagnosed with the eyes and ears. Details of treatment are presented including eradication of streptococci, suppression of inflammation, control of chorea, digitalization and diuresis, and general care. Prognosis and differential diagnosis are also considered.
