This work presents the state of short half-life radioactive waste management in public hospitals. The national regulatory framework that determines radioactive waste management was identified. Likewise, it was identified and established the main medical institutions that use radioisotopes and produces the most amount of radioactive waste. The methodological collection instrument was the questionnaire. This was designed considering criteria such as: personnel training, waste generation, among others. The results showed that 0.08 kg of single-dose solid radioactive wastes are generated per year. Liquid radioactive waste is not quantified. The evidence obtained allowed us to identify that medical institutions partially comply with regulations without involving a radiological risk to personnel, patients or the environment. The absence of an institutional radioactive waste management plan is the cause of the areas of opportunity observed.
