The term quality in health services has been studied by multiple authors, its conceptualization varies according to the development of humanity and the specific historical moment, however, there is no access to documented information in which its concept is established for clinical laboratories. The objective of the article was to define the term quality for teaching clinical laboratories. A documentary review was carried out, using MeSH and DeCS descriptors, a total of 87 articles were accessed. After the analysis of 37 definitions, a database was created with the 73 variables identified therein. A matrix was constructed, and a dendrogram was created based on a cluster analysis. The variables under study were associated into six groups, which allowed the aforementioned concept to be stated.

Palavras-chave : quality; health quality; teaching clinical laboratory.
