Introduction: The need to identify new knowledge and introduce it to respond to the problems of researchers, professors and managers acquires great importance in research-development-innovation projects linked to health technologies, due to their impact on the lives of the global population.
Objective: To develop an information search procedure that allows retrieving quality, pertinent and relevant information from the health field.
Methods: The methodology of knowledge generation and management was applied. The exploration was carried out on the websites, Google Academic, World Health Organization and World Industrial Property Organization, and the keywords were identified to establish the strategy and the computer resources to be used. The procedure obtained was subsequently applied to the COVID-19 case study.
Results: A procedure was obtained for the search for information on health technologies, which consists of search fields, time period, tools and computer resources already identified, this allows to recover quality, pertinent and relevant information from the health field. The application of the procedure to the COVID-19 case allowed its validation in the identification of sources of information specific to this subject.
Conclusions: The procedure allows direct access to specialized sites with a recovery of higher quality information and, at the same time, is part of a version of the methodology of management and generation of knowledge.
