Medical Science and Technology against hospital-acquired Infections
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[01/09/2011] Time and again it sweeps through the media and we hear of serious diseases, like for instance MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), which attack patients in hospitals. Needless to say these diseases happen, but they have long ago come to the forefront of hygiene experts, who fight with a vengeance to prevent essentially “man-made” infections in clinics and hospital facilities.

In Cell Culture, the Neighbourhood Matters
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[30/08/2011] Ever since scientists first began growing human cells in lab dishes, they have focused on improving the chemical soup that feeds the cells and helps regulate their growth. But surfaces also matter, says Laura Kiessling, a professor of chemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. In Cell Culture, the Neighbourhood Matters - Read more
New Risk Score Spots Patients at High Risk of Serious Blood Clots
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[18/08/2011] A new risk prediction tool can identify patients at high risk of serious blood clots who might need preventative treatment. The tool is based on simple variables which the patient is likely to know and could be easily integrated into GP computer systems to risk assess patients prior to hospital admission, long haul flights, or starting medications that carry an increased clotting risk.
