FIMP, the Italian Federation of Primary Care Pediatricians to which the most of Italian family pediatricians belongs, worked for a few years on the development of projects aimed at the Good Clinical Practices. In deep harmony with the Choosing Wisely Italy project, FIMP decided to become partner in Slow Medicine. An ad-hoc working group was created and it detected a list of practices likely to be inappropriate within the typical professional characteristics of primary health care. Therefore, it underwent an evaluation of these practices among the members, who were asked the level of agreement/disagreement regarding the recommendations linked to the proposed practices that risk to be inappropriate. The working group analyzed the result of the 1,046 back-responses of questionnaires and it identified the 5 practices most likely to be inappropriate on the basis of the heterogeneity level among the obtained judgment.
