Abstract

This paper stress on the possible role of protocols for making evolve medical knowledge. This study is situated in the frame of evidence-based medicine, and shows the necessity of allowing the treatment of particular cases. Therapeutic rules used in the decision group are briefly set out. The field studyshows the main role of usig accurate criteria and of giving values to these criteria.Using criteria allows to specialise the rule for fitting with particular cases. The view shared is that when similar specialisations occur repeatedly this may be potential modifications in the written rule.
