To identify indications and controversies in the literature of the use of ATP bioluminescence to evaluate the effectiveness of surface cleaning in healthcare facilities.
Integrative literature review between 2000 and 2012 in the following databases: MEDLINE, LILACS, Science Direct, SCOPUS and Isi Web of Knowledge.
were selected for this review 15 articles. The ATP bioluminescence was considered an important educational resource and complementary method to visual inspection and microbiological evaluation of the effectiveness of cleaning. The impossibility to indicate surface contamination by microorganisms, interference by chemicals and the difficulty of interpreting the results constitute the main controversies in the use of ATP in health services.
Although this is an important resource in the evaluation of surface cleaning, more studies are necessary for effective incorporation of the method in health services.
确定文献中关于使用ATP生物发光法评估医疗机构表面清洁效果的适应证和争议点。
对2000年至2012年期间以下数据库进行综合文献回顾：医学文献数据库（MEDLINE）、拉丁美洲及加勒比地区卫生科学数据库（LILACS）、科学Direct数据库、Scopus数据库和科学网（Isi Web of Knowledge）。
本综述选取了15篇文章。ATP生物发光法被认为是一种重要的教育资源以及对清洁效果进行目视检查和微生物学评估的补充方法。无法指示微生物造成的表面污染、化学物质的干扰以及结果解释的困难是ATP在卫生服务中应用的主要争议点。
尽管这是评估表面清洁的一项重要资源，但要将该方法有效纳入卫生服务还需要更多研究。
