• Abstract: Infections Associated with Health Care (IAAS) are relevant in public health, the hospital environment constitutes a reservoir for the admitted patient, so environmental microbiological monitoring provides retrospective information on the effectiveness of the cleaning and disinfection processes. areas before the appearance of a series of microorganisms that increase the risk of HAI. Aim. Establish the state of the art regarding microbiological environmental monitoring of the in-hospital environment as a strategy to avoid the impact of “IAAS”. Infections Associated with Health Care. Methodology. A systematic review was carried out in databases such as PubMed, Medigraphic, Elsevier and SciELO with the theme; In-hospital microbiological monitoring for the detection of microorganisms that are a latent risk for the appearance of some HAIs. Results. The HAIs with the greatest impact occur in the NICU, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, the mere presence of some microorganisms invites monitoring with certain frequency, these allow detecting areas of opportunity to execute cleaning and disinfection strategies. Conclusion. Microbiological environmental monitoring and the strategies implemented allow maintaining a higher quality in-hospital environmental environment and potentially reduce the risk of generating IAAS in users.
