Tech/Engineering - Computers: Software / health care
German term or phrase: Fehlverhalten
aus: "Damit kann das Risiko von Fehlverhalten erheblich gesenkt werden."

Was ist gemeint: Es geht um eine Software die Personen mit Krankheiten (wie z.B. Diabetes) mit Informationen zu ihrer Krankheit unterstützt. Dieses Plus an Informationen und eine verbesserte Anbindung an den Hausarzt usw. soll eben das Fehlverhalten in Bezug auf diese Krankheit mindern. Danke im Voraus,
Tanja

personal conduct


Explanation:
To help prevent the patient from taking unnecessary risks due to lack of specific knowledge about the ailment he has. For example, cognac and rum are alcoholic drinks that diabetes patients should avoid - due to elevated sugar content - but whisky and vodka are (apparently!) safer in this respect!
