: Ik denk dat Barend het bij het rechte eind heeft. Ik dacht ook eerst aan bloed en slijm, maar dat paste niet bij norovirussymptomen. Slim dat je aan mintekens dacht.

Dank je, Kitty. Gelukkig maar. :-) / Perhaps my exposure to this stuff has been somewhat more extensive, resulting in 'inzicht, doorzicht en overzicht'.

misselijkheid en braken
The context being gastro-intestinal (GI), this probably refers to the first two symptoms covered by the common medical abbreviation N/V/D/C >> nausea / vomiting / diarrhea / constipation

Given your context, "b-s" may refer to "bowel sounds (on auscultation using a stethoscope)". Oftewel: darmgeluiden waargenomen bij auscultatie van de buik. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_medical_abbreviations:...

Discussion
Er is geen nuttige context over de gastro-intestinale symptomen: de patiënt was opgenomen voor dyspneu, tachycardie en leed aan hartziekte, COPD.
De onderstaande suggestie "norovirus" lijkt me plausibel vanwege de dunne ontlasting die erna wordt beschreven.
