Introduction: O mini-CEX is a method of assessment of clinical skills developed by the American Board of Internal Medicine in 1990 for medical education. Objective: to determine the effectiveness of the evaluation of mini-CEX in medical internship and residency. Methods: This is a systematic review that follows the PRISMA items. It was done by searching PubMed and BVS. Results: 49 items were selected as the eligibility filters for the purposes of Prisma, 10 items that were integrated for review were subtracted. Conclusion: the mini-CEX has an important applicability and reproducibility in other cultures. Obtain a reliable measure of performance appraisal. It is about a method capable of carrying out a formative evaluation of the individual, being important and necessary more than an evaluation and furthermore that feedback is provided with the quality that it will directly impact the final result of the training of the individual.
