Abstract Clinical guidelines irreparably characterize contemporary medicine. Referring to guidelines has become routine in both medical literature and daily clinical activity, with the risk of becoming the only—or at least the main—inspiring element of the physician's behaviour. This would lead to the mortification of clinical reasoning, a term that is synonymous with an individualized approach, focused on the single patient, and not on a population.
