Evidence-Based Practice Quiz

The Clinical Scenario:

Mrs. M is a highly-functional 86 year old female who presents to the clinic with 5 days of diarrhea.  She is one month status post right femur fracture repair.  She was dismissed from rehab 2 days ago.  Mrs. M, who with her husband operated a health food store for 40 years, has spent her life avoiding medications and using natural remedies.  Her husband mentions concern over the possibility of diarrhea as a side effect of the antibiotics and asks if using fermented milk with lactobacillus or some other probiotic product would stop the diarrhea. 

The Clinical Scenario is adapted from one published at The University of Maryland Health Sciences and Human Services Library.
