This study deals with the conformation of contemporary Medicine as a historical and social practice, whose technique has been profoundly influenced not only by scientific knowledge, but by scientific rationality as well. To study this articulation, the viewpoint adopted was one oriented to sound practice. An analysis of data from renowned medical treatises and scientific journals published in the second half of the twentieth century revealed that clinical practice went through a transition process during this period. A comparison of several decades (the fifties, seventies and nineties) showed that an evolutionary process was at play, involving a great deal of tension as regards indicators of what ¿good physician performance¿ consists of. Concerning medical practice indicators, it became evident that a major technical change took place, consisting of a shift away from personal clinical experience and the relatively widespread production of research connected with clinical practice, toward the enhancement of a scientific set of procedures, submitted to efficiency and results testing, and the growth of specialized research centers. clinical practice, a technique that is close to the patient but that remains something of an art, a type of work both operative and unique, which applies science to individual care and which is committed to action, has become progressively strained due to a bias favoring greater theoretical and scientific knowledge
