While no doctors have the ears in the stumble, when they hear words like Cholecystekomie (gall bladder removal), Benno Mann and other doctors at the Augusta speak these words into a microphone and the computer system converts the spoken report in a written form “, writes the WAZ. This leads not only to do this, that the results are faster, become a positive influence on the quality of patient care.

By the end of 2010, all homes and care services by the medical services of the health insurance (MDK) should “be checked for quality.” Well to cut off, the facilities have to offer not only a high-quality care also the documentation about the care must be. It must be complete and comprehensible for the investigators of the MDK. The software POPs social supports nursing homes daily documentation.

The probiotic helps pathogens of intestinal infections to fend off infections of the gastrointestinal tract are widely used especially in the cold season. They are thrown most viruses, but also by bacteria and fungi. The infections are accompanied by annoying affects, usually but not further threatening and sound also came so quickly. This is true but not always, and certainly not if bacteria and fungi in the game. In such cases, specific measures should be taken, eliminate the causes and consequences of the infection. In addition to measures to eliminate the symptoms and consequences of infection, measures have proven in addition, contributing to the stabilization and recovery of impaired intestinal flora. Good experiences have been made with suitable probiotics.

Probiotics are viable micro-organisms, which recorded can have beneficial health effects in humans in large quantities. Some bacteria and the medical yeast of Saccharomyces are boulardii as probiotics. Is common to all, that are completely harmless for humans and occur typically as natural components of the physiological intestinal flora. Some of appropriate bacteria find widespread use in Probiotic yoghurts. Recently new insights were published for medical yeast, which show how this high-quality probiotic can help people to protect themselves from ill-making intestinal bacteria and fungi. According to these studies, Saccharomyces is boulardii able to repel pathogens in the gut directly or to weaken their ill be virulence factors.

These include dangerous pathogens from the Group of salmonella as well as fungi (Candida) and the intestinal bacterium E. coli. It can succeed, so, to prevent the occurrence of bowel infection by these pathogens or to mitigate the consequences of at least. Studies have shown a total of several hundred participants that Saccharomyces boulardii successfully can be applied to the prevention and treatment of intestinal infections, on a physiological intestinal flora brought out of balance are due. For the balance of the intestinal flora risk generally, if your own immune system is weakened. This can be the case preferably in winter or also due to prolonged stress loads. Also, there are special situations which can mess up a natural intestinal flora. To include first of all antibiotics, which kill off unfortunately not just the disease pathogens, but also the many small insects in the intestine. Not to be forgotten are also unusual food or abroad in countries of the South. In these situations, it is worth to the stabilization of the own intestinal flora and for the prevention of intestinal infections with pesky diarrhoea the probiotic Saccharomyces boulardii to access itself. The probiotic is available in capsules as afterbiotic. It is a supplementary balanced diet to the dietary treatment of diarrhea that results from a disorder of the intestinal flora.
