RODRIGUEZ PEREZ, Abilio Ubaldo; DELGADO PEREZ, Miriam Lázara y DUJARRIC MARTINEZ, María Dolores. Antimicrobial procedures: Part II: the sterilization at health institutions. Rev Cubana Hig Epidemiol [online]. 2007, vol.45, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3003.
OBJECTIVE: to apply the different valid methods of "antimicrobial fight" to prevent and control hospital infections. DEVELOPMENT: the methods of "antimicrobial fight" are elements for preventing infection at the health institutions. They act as barriers that hinder the transmission of biological agents, leading to a strict surveillance in this sense. The sterilization procedures recommended for the different levels of medical assistance were described. CONCLUSIONS: these activities should be observed from a system approach, where all the process stages are interrelated to obtain a successful result.
