title: [Constitutional requirements for the regulation of medical practice].
abstract: Guidelines describe a systematically produced technical standard for medical decisions in different situations of medical treatment and therefore serve as guidance for both professionals and patients. They apply subject to the specific features of the individual case. Finally, their adoption as legal rules by the "joint self government" is only admissible if the requirements which will be developed in this article are fulfilled.
