[Clinical management. A always current tool].
Clinical reasoning is the fundamental tool every clinician must master. This paper gives a definition of clinical reasoning process using real cases and presents some of the cognitive models underlying it (especially the script concept). We discuss the caveats of clinical reasoning process and its impact on interdisciplinary work, the use of technologies and medical teaching.
