clinical findings
It may look like "clinical objectivity" but it just means what the physician observed/found in the physical examination (which in Italian is the 'esame obiettivo') as opposed to what the patient reports as symptoms.

More context, as everyone is commenting (and as ProZ prompts you to enter when you're asking the question) is always helpful. As Linda says, past experience suggests that this is probably what we're talking about in this case.

: Sorry again, I had misread the context (and the question). I agree that clinical findings is what is meant here.

Thank you Giulia.

Linda Thody
: Yes, absolutely, presuming the "lettera di dimissione" is from a hospital and therefore means the "patient discharge form". More context really is needed, rather than just "Medical" but common sense and past experience lead me to deduce as you have.

clinical objectivity
Joseph already explained its meaning.
I have seen it translated with clinical objectivity sometimes though.

objective [diagnostic] findings
"Clinical findings" sounds more familiar to most people, I'd presume. Why didn't I simply agree then? Since I think objective findings is more appropriate for the term includes not only clinical findings on a physical exam, but also imaging results, lab results, pathology reports, etc.
