Cabinet of Intestinal Infections

The Department of Intestinal Infections was a department that treated people with gastrointestinal infections or gastric and duodenal ulcers.

The medical institution, however, continues to bear the name “room for intestinal infections.” A city clinic usually has two gastrointestinal rooms with separate district nurses who, in the absence of a doctor, care for patients who come to them at home. There is one office at the hospital, and some inpatients are treated there.
