Abstract
The guidelines for a long time represented a useful model, but not binding, of medical conduct to adapting in order to avoid professional liability. In this sense, the idea of relying solely on these, raises serious concerns where very often there is not real "evidence" to scientific support of the recommendations. The authors have conducted a review of the literature to drawing the attention of the scientific community on the lights and shadows of this dangerous Italian prospect.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
