The usage of chemical disinfectant dissolutions in the prevention of the in-hospital infections is a complex problem because of different causes; they do not fulfil the established physical-chemical requirements of quality for its effective handling, what originates microbiologic contamination for germs that are harmful to the health and the environment: The objective of this work was making a descriptive study on the quality control of the hibitane like a main disinfectant solution used in the University Clinic-surgical Hospital Comandante Faustino Pérez, in the period from January 1997 to December 2006. In this period we checked the quality of this dissolution, according to the normative of the hygiene-epidemiologic surveillance, and we stated that it does not fulfil the established parameters, with the objective of minimizing the negative impacts exerted by the microbiologic contamination on the human health and the environment.
