[Clinical knowledge cannot only be acquired in practice].
Methodological training is necessary in order to cope with the ever-growing volume of knowledge by clinical experience. This training involves ways of reasoning and collecting relevant evidence. This type of instruction should be given in concurrence with the first exercises in clinical reasoning. Such instruction should focus on acquisition of the ability to clearly substantiate decisions made during medical practice.
