Abstract
On the 23rd February 2009, Dao Duy Anh, born on 24 September 1992, consulted the Thaí Bình General Hospital because of bad stomach pains. A physician recorded the anamnesis, examined him, diagnosed an acutely inflamed stomach and wrote prescriptions for amoxiclin, rekalate, smecta and omeprazole. Anh was cured within a few days and no follow-up by medical services was required.
