This work consists of a systematic review that aims identify and illustrate the various limitations that health systems currently face regarding the metrological system reliability of medical equipment. Studies have been made in the search for scientific articles in databases chosen, and after the application of the criteria for inclusion and exclusion for articles, obtained 6 publications, that represented the base of the construction of this work. The metrological reliability of medical equipment is extremely important in health services, as it ensures, among other things, the safety of diagnostics and treatments.
