43:16|Ingrid og Jørgen har vært på vift til nordisk infeksjonskonferanse i København - gled deg til en potpurri av info om endokardittbehandling, staph aureus-bakteriemi, fecal mikrobiotatransplantasjon og veldig mye annet!Ordforklaring: FMT = fekal mikrobiotatransplantasjon. S.aureus = gule stafylokker (bakterie). Bakteriemi = bakterier i blodbanen. Sputum/ekspektorat = slim fra nedre luftveier. Nasofarynx = området mellom svelg og nese (øvre luftveier) der mange luftveisprøver tas fra. PCR = polymerase chain reaction, analysemetode.Referanser: 1.
