Objective:
To identify the effectiveness of sodium hypochlorite and 70% alcohol in surface disinfection.Method:
Integrative review in databases National Library of Medicine of the United States (PUBMED); Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO); Latin American and Caribbean Health Science Literature Database (LILACS) and Web of Science. The search was performed in documents published between 2008 and 2017. The following controlled and combined descriptors were usedin Portuguese, English and Spanish Efficacy, Ethanol, Sodium Hypochlorite, Disinfection and Health Services. Six articles were selected to compose the sample. Of these, 66.6% presented a strong level of evidence.Results:
The results indicate a higher efficacy of sodium hypochlorite in relation to alcohol at 70%, in the disinfection of surfaces, mainly due to its microbicidal action and spore performance. Nursing stood out in contributing to a greater development in research, being an important protagonist in the evolution of care and in promoting the safety of patients and health workers.Conclusion:
Although the included studies were carried out in hospital units, the importance of preventing the spread of microorganisms in primary health care environments is highlighted, since the phenomenon of infection is independent of the place where care is provided.
