Abstract
Guidelines of the medical profession play an important role in determining and developing the quality of care and they further define the general legal provisions in this area. This means that guidelines also have a certain legal significance. Guidelines play a role in disciplinary proceedings in various ways. The basic principle is that the disciplinary court follows a guideline, but sometimes there are reasons not to do so. In addition, disciplinary case law is sometimes a source of inspiration for new guidelines.
