The clinical record is a set of documents in which the care provided to the patient is accredited. It is the ideal mean by which the interventions of the health personnel, the patient’s authorizations and, in general, someone’s health condition gets established. On the one hand, it guarantees an information bank so patients may know the data related to their health, and on the other hand, it allows health personnel to accredit the service provided to the patient.
